PREFACE. 

This  historical  pageant  and  the  following  civic 
masque  were  prepared  under  the  authority  of  the 
Book  Committee  of  the  St.  Louis  Pageant  Drama 
Association,  organized  to  present  the  Pageant  and 
Masque  of  St.  Louis  in  Forest  Park  on  May  28-31, 
1914,  in  celebration  of  the  150th  anniversary  of  the 
founding  of  St.  Louis. 

The  general  procedure  in  both  cases  was  outlined 
or  approved  by  the  Committee,  which  selected  the 
historical  episodes  to  be  used  in  the  Pageant,  and 
supervised  the  general  preparation  of  this  book.

FIRST  MOVEMENT 

[The  stage  is  set  with  trees  aud  with  a  few  dwellings 
of  a  monnd])uilder  village  partially  concealed  in  the 
foliage. 

At  the  right  of  the  stage  is  a  partially  constructed 
inoimd ;  on  the  top  of  this  a  fire,  burned  low. 

Enter,  as  the  overture  closes,  the  High  Priest  and 
two  acolytes,  coming  up  over  the  mound  from  the 
back.] 

THE  HIGH  PRIEST 
The  fire  —  the  fire  sleeps. 
Blow  away  the  ashes,  my  brothers, 
That  the  smoke  may  rise  upward, 
And  the  cloud  manitous  be  not  angry. 

[As  he  speaks,  the  two  acolytes  kneel  and  blow  the 
fire  till  the  .smoke  ascends.] 

Smoke  of  our  fire, 

Speak  for  us  to  the  cloud  manitous  —  speak  for  ns. 
Rid  them  let  fall  tlie  sweet  rain 
That  the  corn  may  grow  green  in  our  fields, 
For  we  are  their  children. 
[To  the  acolytes.] 

Stay,  ray  brothers. 

Make  the  smoke  talk  to  the  far  off  lodges; 
Make  it  carry  our  sorrow  to  the  mounds ; 
The  mounds  that  are  beyond  the  Great  Kiver. 
Make  it  say  to  the  people  that  we  cry  aloud 

0 


That  we  weep  for  our  chief,  who  was  wise,  wlio  was 

brave,  who  was  strong  — 
For  our  chief  is  dead. 

[The  acolytes  work  over  the  fire  with  mats,  making 
the  smoke  rise  in  intermittent  puffs. 

The  High  Priest  makes  lamentation,  calling  the 
people  to  the  mound.] 

Ohe,  Olio,  Ohe! 

Our  chief  is  cold  —  he  is  dead. 

Ohe,  Ohe,  Ohe! 

[The  people  come  in,  gathering  around  the  foot  of 
the  mound,  beating  their  breasts  and  crying  out  with 
the  Priest.  Others  come  in  bringing  the  implements 
of  their  daily  work.] 

THE  PEOPLE 

Ohe,  Ohe,  Ohe !    Our  chief  is  dead. 

[The  various  craftsmen  of  the  tribe  set  about  their 
work,  weaving  upon  looms,  making  pottery,  chipping 
flints,  scraping  hides,  and  the  like.] 

THE  HIGH  PRIEST 
The  earth,  my  children. 
Bring  hither  the  red  earth. 

Heap  high  this  mound  where  our  chief  shall  sleep. 
[The  people  bring  earth  in  baskets,  coming  up  in 
single   file    to   lay    it   on    the   mound. 
The  High  Priest  chants.] 

The  earth  —  the  red  earth,  my  children. 

Heap  it  high,   that   the   spirits   of  the   dead  may 

be  glad, 
That  the  earth-gods  may  dance  in  the  darkness. 
That  the  river  manitous  may  not  tear  at  our  graves 

when  they  are  maddened  with  the  floods  of  spring; 
The  earth,  the  red  earth,  my  children. 

[The  chant  is  broken  by  a  .sound  of  wailing  and  the 
beating  of  tom-toms  behind  the  mound,  and  a  new 
group  enters  in  procession,  bearing  the  dead  chief  to 
the  summit.  They  bring  the  dead  chief's  possessions 
and  range  them  around  the  body.  The  people  wail  and 
beat  their  breasts;  the  High  Priest  stills  them.] 
10 


Manitous  of  the  earth,  of  the  river,  of  the  cloud, 

And  thou,  blaster  of  Life, 

Hear  now  the  death  song  of  our  chief. 

[As  he  chants  the  death  song,  the  people  bring  earth 
in  baskets,  and  heap  it  around  the  dead  chief.] 

He  is  as  the  hare  tree  in  snow  time. 

As  the  trodden  leaf 

He  is  withered, 

As  the  fallen  branch 

He  is  broken: 

Hear  now  his  death  song. 

There  is  no  lodge  where  his  bow  shall  hang  — 

Only  the  lodge  of  the  dead, 

In  the  smoke  of  the  dark  caverns, 

In  the  cold  night; 

Hear  now  his  death  song. 

[Enter,  from  the  left,  crossing  the  stage  at  a  run,  the 
Young  Chief  and  two  Hunters.  They  have  bows,  and 
carry  on  their  shoulders  fresh  buffalo  skins.  They 
pause  near  the  mound  and  call  to  the  people.] 

THE  YOUNG  CHIEF 
Hearken,  my  Ijrothers ! 

The  buffalo  —  they  feed  along  the  plain  of  the  sun- 
set. 
We  have  heard.    We  have  seen.   We  have  slain. 

[They  throw  down  the  skins.] 
Behold  the  hot  pelts  we  have  taken. 
We  have  run  hither  that  our  hunters  may  follow 
them  with  arrows. 

[There  are  loud  cries  from  the  people  —  "The  buf- 
falo!    Take  Bows!"] 

THE  HIGH  PRIEST 
[Standing  between  the  Young  Chief  and  the  dead  man.] 

Stay  my  children. 
Set  not  your  feet  to  this  luintiug. 

11 


Toil  on  in  tlio  s"ooJ  red  earth, 

Tliat  the  nionnils  may  lift  their  heads  above  your 

fields, 
And  the  nianitous  be  not  angry, 
And  the  dead  sleep  sound. 

THE  YOUNG  CHIEF 
He  is  old,  my  brothers. 
His  feet  are  heavy  for  this  hunting. 
But  we  have  seen  the    land   bhick   with    tlic    herds 

against  the  sunset. 
We  call  you  to  the  trails  and  the  feasting. 

THE  HIGH  PRIEST 
The  corn  will  ripen  if  the  fields  be  guarded, 
But  the  lodge  of  the  hunter  is  empty  when  the  snows 
break  around  it. 

THE  YOUNG  CHIEF 
The  fields  are  for  women. 

Let  them  gather  the  corn.     Let  them    grind    it    in 
winter. 

THE  HIGH  PRIEST 

This  hunter  is  young.    He  is  the  son  of  a  chief. 

I  am  old.    And  each  year  the  buffalo  graze  nearer 

the  Great  River. 

Let  the  young  chief  command  you. 

But  first  let  him  stand  here  on  the  mound 

Where  I  stand. 

[He  moves  aside,  showing  the  body  of  the  dead  chief. 
The  Young  Chief  comes  up  the  mound.  As  he  stands 
beside  the  l)ody  there  is  a  pause ;  then  the  High  Priest 
uncovers  the  head  of  the  dead  man.  The  Young  Chief 
cries  out  as  if  struck,  and  falls  beside  the  body.] 

THE  FIRST  HUNTER 

[Speaking  from  below.] 

A  man  lives  or  he  dies. 

Shall  the  herds  pass  onward  and  we  still  be  hungry? 

12 


THE  PEOPLE 
Take  bows !    To  the  bunting ! 

THE  HIGH  PRIEST 
Call  now  on  your  Chief. 
Let  him  lead  you. 

[The  Young  Cliii'f  ris.'s  jiid  di-aws  liiniself  up  to 
speak.] 

THE  YOUNG  CHIEF 
You  shall  go  to  the  feasting, 
But  I  —  I  will  not  lead  you. 

[There  is  a  great  shout,  and  the  men  of  the  tribe 
troop  oif.  The  Young  Chief  stands  looking  straight 
before  him ;  the  High  Priest  crouches,  watching  them 
go.] 

THE  HIGH  PRIEST 
The  hunters  go  out  —  the  young  men, 
And  the  mounds  are  left  alone. 

THE  YOUNG  CHIEF 
Even  so. 

And  the  mounds,  at  the  end  of  this  hunting 
Shall  lift  their  heads  no  higher. 
It  is  the  way  of  our  people. 
It  is  the  will  of  the  Master  of  Life. 

[The  High  Priest  falls  in  a  heap  at  the  feet  of  the 
Young  Chief.  The  women  come  up  bringing  earth, 
which  they  cast  over  the  body  of  the  dead  man.  When 
the  women  go  down  from  the  mound,  the  other  figures 
have  disappeared  and  the  top  of  the  mound  is  empty. 
The  women  take  up  their  looms  and  household  affairs 
and  go  off.  following  the  men.  The  dwellings  of  the 
mound-builders  disappear,  and  for  a  moment  the  stage 
is  clear. 

Enter  a  group  of  Osage  Indians.  Some  of  them 
carry  poles,  and  set  up  tepees;  others  go  oyer  and  in- 
spect the  mound,  curiously;  still  others  kindle  fires, 
while  the  cooks  bring  water  from  the  lagoon,  going 
down  at  the  extreme  right  of  the  stage.  The  center  is 
occupied  by  a   group  of  Indian  children,  who  start 


games  in  front  of  the  wigwams,  shouting  lustily  at  their 
play;  they  ai-e  scattered  for  a  moment  by  the  passing 
of  a  medicine  nmn ;  some  of  them  follow  and  mock  him, 
and  all  resume  their  play  whvu  he  has  gone  into  the 
lodge. 

Enter  a  party  of  hunters,  returning  from  the  chase 
with  rabbits,  wild  fowl,  and  deer.  Tiie  cooks  immedi- 
ately set  about  preparing  the  feast. 

Two  runners  enter  from  the  right,  going  to  the 
tepee  of  the  chief.  Trumpets  are  heard,  and  tiie  In- 
dians troop  to  the  back  of  the  stage.  Enter,  from  the 
right,  De  ISoto  and  his  command;  they  come  ou  above 
the  mouud,  and  swing  down  toward  the  audience,  cen- 
ter, the  chiefs  going  up  to  meet  them,  the  women  and 
children  running  away.  De  Soto  gives  to  the  chiefs 
presents  of  colored  cloth,  etc. 

He  then  holds  up  to  them  certain  objects  of  gold  and 
silver,  at  w^hich  the  Indians  show  great  curiosity.  He 
inquires  by  gesture  whether  they  have  such  metals. 
They  shake  their  heads;  De  Soto  and  his  ofiticers  show 
grave  disappointment. 

One  of  the  Spanish  captains  comes  forward  and  be- 
seeches the  commander  to  give  up  the  search  and  turn 
back.  He  pauses,  and  the}"  draw  away  from  him ;  he 
bows  his  head,  deciding  to  give  up  the  expedition  and 
return.  He  calls  out  the  priests  and  carpenters,  and 
commands  that  a  cross  be  set  upon  the  mound ;  this  is 
immediately  done,  the  priests  stand  by  the  cross,  and  a 
litany  is  sung,  the  soldiers  responding  and  the  Indians 
standing  with  upraised  arms.  De  Soto  mounts  his 
horse  and  orders  his  army  to  march ;  they  pass  around 
the  mound  and  off  to  the  right.  The  Indians  return  to 
their  tepees. 

As  soon  as  the  Spaniards  are  gone,  the  chiefs  antl 
medicine  men  call  all  the  people  of  the  village,  beating 
drums  and  shouting.  The  Calumet  Dance  is  begun, 
proceeds  for  a  time,  and  is  interrupted  by  warning 
shouts  from  the  mound,  where  watchers  are  stationed. 
A  messenger  enters  from  the  left,  and  delivers  to  the 
chief  of  the  village  a  red  war-belt.  The  dancers  scat- 
ter. "War  whoops  are  heard  from  the  right  of  the  stage, 
and  a  smoking  arrow  falls  and  stands  upright  in  the 
center.  The  chief  calls  to  his  warriors,  and  they  rush 
forward,  armed  with  bows  and  axes,  and  begin  the  War 
Dance,  which  is  interrupted  by  the  appearance  of  the 
14 


enemy.  The  men  of  the  village  discharge  their  arrows 
against  their  foes,  and  then  rnsh  upon  them  as  they 
appear  in  full  view.  The  people  of  tlie  village  are 
driven  back,  almost  to  their  tepees,  when  the  medicine 
men  lead  a  group  over  the  mound  and  into  the  midst 
of  the  invaders,  who  take  fright  and  are  driven  back. 
The  tribes-men  pursue  them  out  of  sight,  and  then  fall 
back  for  council. 

Enter  a  deputation  of  the  enemy,  bearing  aloft  a 
Calumet  and  white  peace-belts.  The  Indians  sit  in  coun- 
cil, the  Sachem  of  the  village  speaking  first.] 

SACHEM 
You  came  with  bows  and  axes.      The  roads  were 
closed.    Now  you  come  with  the  wiiite  peace-belt 
and  the  Calumet.   You  ask  us  to  open  the  roads. 
We  are  not  childreii.    No. 

CALUMET  BEARER 

[Chief  of  the  deputation  from  the  enemy.] 
We  came  with  arrows  because  your  braves  have 
hunted  in  our  lands. 

SACHEM 
All  lands  are  our  hunting  grounds.     The  Giver  of 
Light  has  made  for  the  Osage  all  the  hills  and  the 
forests  and  the  rivers,  so  far  as  his  feet  may  tread. 

CALUMET  BEARER 
Yet  our  people  must  have  food,  or  they  die.    If  you 
will  not  open  the  roads,  we  will  burn  up  your  tribes 
with  the  fire  of  our  angei-. 

[He  lifts  the  peace-belt  to  throw  it  down.] 

MEDICINE  MAN 
[Coming  between  them.] 
I  have  heard  your  speaking.  I  have  slept  and  the 
Manitou  has  made  for  me  a  dream.  Far  to  the 
snow  and  the  setting  sun  there  is  good  hunting. 
Far  toward  the  summer  and  the  flowing  of  the 
river  is  good  hunting.  Let  us  open  the  roads,  but 
let  us  divide  the  lands. 


CALU.AIKT  li  10  A  HER 
Is  tliis  li-iic  t;ilk       lliis  dream  fi'din  tlic  ^ranitoii? 

MEDICINE  MAX 
It  is  true  talk. 

CALUMET  BEARER 
Will  yon  stay  hero,  or  go  on  to  the  snow  and  the  snn- 
set,  that  the  roads  may  be  open? 

SACHEM 

AVe  will  stay  here  with  onr  green  growing  corn. 

CALUMET  BEARER 
We  will  not  open  the  roads  — 

MEDICINE  MAN 

Let  the  Giver  of  Light  speak  to  us.  I  will  cast  mine 

axe,  and  the  Manitou  will  make  it  fall  as  he  wills. 

[The  others  nod,  and  the  Sachem  whitens  one  side  of 

the  axe ;  the  Calumet  Bearer  marks  the  other  side  with 

crimson ;  the  Medicine  Man  tosses  it  high  in  air ;  all 

watch  its  flight.    The  men  of  the  villasre  nod  and  grnnt 

their  approval  of  the  result.] 

CALUMET  BEARER 

We  will  go  on  to  another  hnnting  ground.    Let  the 

roads  be  open. 

[He  putfs  the  Calumet  and  passes  it  to  the  circle; 
the  peace-belts  are  exchanged,  and  the  Calumet  Bearer 
leads  his  people  sadly  away.  For  a  moment  the  council 
smokes  in  silence.  Then  a  boy  runs  in  and  stands  be- 
fore the  Sachem.] 

SACHEM 
Speak,  young  runner  with   face   against   the   south 
wind. 

THE  BOY 

Canoes,  on  the  great  river.  Two  canoes.  Pale  faces 
—  seven  pale  face  men.  Their  paddles  dip  in  the 
stream.    They  are  Manitous. 

16 


SACHEM 
I  have  heard  of  these  pale  faces. 

THE   BOY 
One  of  them  is  a  Black  Gown. 

SACHEM 

From  the  northern  country  comes  word  in  the 
spring;  to  the  Black  Gown  all  roads  are  open. 

[The  Sachem  comes  down  to  the  water's  edge,  and 
the  people  of  the  village  crowd  around  him,  waiting 
and  watching. 

Marquette  and  Jolliet  enter  in  canoes,  Marquette 
coming  first ;  he  speaks  with  the  Sachem,  and  then,  over 
his  shoulder,  to  Jolliet.] 

MAKQUETTE 
I  am  welcome? 

SACHEM 

I  thank  thee,  Black  Gown,  and  thee.  Frenchman,  for 
the  labor  of  yonr  coming.  Never  shone  the  sun  so 
tenderly  as  to-day;  never  rustled  the  corn  so  pleas- 
antly as  now,  since  yon  are  with  us.  Our  river, 
which  was  so  angry  at  the  rocks  that  chafed  it, 
flows  calm  and  silent,  since  the  canoes  of  the  white 
men  have  passed.  Black  Gown,  thou  art  beloved 
of  the  Great  Spirit.  Ask  him  to  cherish  me  and  my 
people. 

MARQUETTE

SACHEM 

We  have  heard  from  the  north  of  the  greatness  of 
the  Manitou.  ^fake  thy  dwelling  with  us,  that  we 
may  learn  to  know  him.

MARQUETTE 

[To  Jolliet.] 

They  are  eager  for  the  teachings  of  the  Cross.  Shall 
we  not  remain? 

JOLLIET 

We  may  not  stay,  father.  The  journey  is  long  be- 
fore us. 

MARQUETTE 

God  be  with  you  and  bless  you,  my  children.  I  will 
return,  I  will  bring  you  my  faith  —  I  and  my 
brothers.    But  now  we  must  go  on.    Farewell. 


SACHEM 

Farewell  to  thee.  Black  Gown. 

[The  canoes  move  on,  the  eyes  of  the  Indians  follow- 
ing them.  As  they  pass  from  sight  the  Sachem  steps 
closer  to  the  shore ;  then  he  folds  his  arras,  and  the  peo- 
ple go  back  to  the  tepees,  slowly,  leaving  the  Sachem 
alone.  He  stands  for  a  moment,  then  follows  the  others, 
and  disappears  inside  his  tepee. 

Enter  a  new  group  of  Indians,  laden  with  furs ;  some 
of  them  lead  horses  bearing  packs. 

Enter,  in  canoes,  La  Salle  and  his  party ;  there  are 
fifty-four  in  all,  Frenchmen  and  Indians.  They  dis- 
embark, a  number,  however,  remaining  with  the  canoes. 
Some  of  them  bargain  with  the  Indians,  buying  the 
furs  and  taking  them  to  the  canoes.  La  Salle  walks 
apart  with  Tonty.  A  group  of  the  Frenchmen  ap- 
proach La  Salle,  their  hats  in  their  hands.  A  Voy- 
ageur  speaks  for  the  group.] 

VOYAGEUR 

We  are  come  to  ask,  does  the  Sieur  de  la  Salle  intend 
to  go  further  down  the  river? 

LA  SALLE 
He  does. 

18 


VOYAGEUR 
The  river  is  filled  with  dangers.    No  Frenchman  has 
lived  to  follow  it  to  its  end.     There    is    a    great 
water-fall  — 

LA  SALLE 
I  have  heard  these  tales  before. 

VOYAGEUR 
The  trade  is  good  here,  and  to  the  northward. 

LA  SALLE 
We  go  on,  to  the  South. 

VOYAGEUR 

The  Sienr  de  la  Salle  speaks  for  himself.    We  are 

afraid. 

LA  SALLE 

You  have  nothing  to  fear,  save  my  anger. 

[Others  have  gathered  behind  the  Voyageur;  their 
demeanor  at  this  becomes  more  openly  rebellious.] 

VOYAGEUR 

It  is  not  just.  We  must  look  to  our  own  lives.  ^^  e 
dare  not  go  on. 

LA  SALLE 

Do  I  not  command  here? 

TONTY 

No  man  may  question  the  authority  of  the  Sieur  de 
la  Salle. 

LA  SALLE 

You  ask  me  to  turn  back.  You  are  afraid.  The 
wealth  of  these  rivers  is  ours  for  the  taking.  These 
lands  are  ours  for  the  claiming.  For  this  I  have 
waited,  and  planned,  and  fought.  Do  you  think  1 
will  turn  back  because  my  boatmen  are  afraid? 

19 


VOVAUEUR 
Our  lives  are  our  own.     We  will  not  go  on. 

[La  Salle  turns  and  faces  them,  drawing  his  sword.] 

LA  SALLE 

Frenclimeu,  our  lives  are  in  the  service  of  the  King. 
We  go  on  a  voyage  of  glory,  to  claim  for  liim  this 
river  and  all  its  tributaries,  to  win  for  him  an  em- 
pire. I  will  not  turn  back,  now  nor  hereafter.  I 
will  follow  this  river  to  the  sea  —  not  for  myself, 
not  for  you  who  go  with  me,  but  for  France.  Long 
live  the  King ! 

TONTY  AND  OTHERS 
[Who  have  gathered  behind  him.] 
Long  live  the  King ! 


LA  SALLE 


Forward ! 


[The  Voyageur  and  his  followers  face  La  Salle  for  a 
moment,  then  their  heads  drop,  and  thej^  take  up  their 
packs  and  return  to  the  canoes.  La  Salle  going  last ;  the 
canoes  move  on  and  disappear  at  the  i-ight  of  the  stage.]

THE  PROPHET 

[Appearing  before  the  Medicine  Lodge  at  the  right 
of  the  stage,  high  up  against  the  great  tree-trunk.  It 
is  now  sunset.] 

Great  Manitou,  whose  camp-fire  now  l)uriis  low, 
Hark  to  luy  speaking.     Call  tliy  children  home, 
And  paint  their  faces  with  thine  onward  fire, 
And  lead  them  down  the  war  trail  to  thy  rest. 
For  lo,  the  smokes  of  all  our  villages 
Blow  westward,  and  the  hungry  snows  fall  deep 
Upon  our  hunting  grounds.    And  green  Mondamin 
He  of  the  corn-gift,  loves  us  now  no  more. 
The  Black  Gown  held  his  calumet  aloft, 
jVnd  we  knelt  down.    We  loved  him  well.  He  passed. 
And  in  the  end  his  magic  too  passed  on. 
For  strong  pale  men  with  thunders  in  their  hands 
Came  after  him.  Their  eyes  were  filled  with  dreams 
Of  rich  far  places  we  had  never  found, 
Beyond  the  blue  horizons.    They  were  brave. 
They  shouldered  us  aside,  and  made  new  trails 
And  all  the  manitous  of  hill  and  cloud 
Crouched  to  their  spells,  and  breathed  their  med- 
icine. 
Great  Manitou, 

Thy  vision  flames  wdthin  me,  and  I  see 
Into  the  west  our  nations  trooping  slow. 
And  here  our  council  places  desolate. 
The  paleface  rears  in  stone  his  mighty  lodge 
And  sets  his  town  upon  the  crossing  trails. 
His  totem  changes,  but  as  beavers  build 
To  stand  against  the  floods  of  spring,  so  ho 
Makes  stronger  with  each  year  his  thunder-house. 
And  I,  0  Manitou,  I  set  my  face 
To  thine,  and  follow  thee,  into  the  night. 

[The  Prophet  disappears.] 
21 


SECOND  MOVEMENT 

[A  boat  appears  at  the  right,  towed  by  men  with  eor- 
delles.    Youug  Auguste  Chouteau  stands  in  the  prow.] 

CHOUTEAU 

This  is  the  place,  men.    Make  fast. 
[They  make  fast  the  ropes.] 

A  BOATMAN 
What  place,  Monsieur  Chouteau? 

CHOUTEAU 
The  place  where  Monsieur  Laclede  blazed  the  trees. 
Here  we  are  to  take  the  goods  ashore. 

[The  crew  at  once  sets  to  work  to  unload  the  boat, 
Chouteau  directing  them.  As  the  packs  are  landed,  the 
men  set  up  canvas  and  board  shelters  over  them ;  this 
work  progresses  as  the  dialogue  is  spoken. 

TAILLON 
[Coming  up  to  Chouteau.] 
Monsieur  Auguste. 

CHOUTEAU 
What  is  it,  Taillon? 

TAILLON 
Monsieur  Laclede  has  sent  us  here.  He  has  told  us 
to  take  from  you  his  commands.  We  do  so.  You 
came  with  him  before.  We  wish  to  ask  what  is  to 
be  done  here.  Is  it  here  Monsieur  Laclede  will 
have  his  settlement? 

00 


CHOUTEAU 
Yes. 

TAILLON 
And  build  his  house? 

CHOUTEAU 
Yes. 

TAILLON 
And  why  in  this  place? 

CHOUTEAU 

He  has  examined  all  the  land  from  Fort  Chartres 
to  the  Missouri.  Ste.  Genevieve  will  not  do.  It  is 
too  far  from  the  Missouri,  and  there  is  no  place  to 
store  the  goods. 

TAILLON 

But  here  is  no  place  to  store  the  goods. 

CHOUTEAU 

Monsieur  Laclede  said  to  me,  "Auguste,  go  to  the 
place  where  I  blazed  the  trees.  Clear  the  ground. 
Build  a  large  shed  for  the  goods,  and  cabins  for 
the  voyageurs.  I  give  you  two  men  you  can  trust, 
who  will  help  you  very  much.  I  will  come  soon." 
That  is  what  he  told  me.  Taillon,  you  are  one  of 
those  two. 

TAILLON 

^fy  respects.  Monsieur  Chouteau.  We  will  do  as  you 
command. 

[lie  turns  to  the  work,  and  they  raise  the  side  of  a 
large  shed ;  Chouteau  watches  them  for  a  moment,  look- 
ing down  stream  expectantly.  1 

CHOUTEAU 
Ah,  Taillon  —  Monsieur  Laclede  comes ! 

[Taillon  joins  Chouteau  ;  Laclede  appears  in  a  canoe, 
two  voyageurs  paddling.] 

2.S 


TAILLOX 

Monsieur  Laclede  comes ! 

[The  men  crowd  back  oi  Chouteau  and  Taillon  as 
Laclede  lands;  they  doff  their  hats  and  bow.] 

CHOUTEAU 

You  are  most  welcome,  sir. 

LACLEDE 

[Looking  at  the  sheds  and  work  done.] 
Well  done,  my  lad.    Taillon,  the  work  moves.    My 
friends,  in  a  little  while  the  English  will  come  to 
take  the  land  across  the  river.    You  are  all  loyal 
subjects  of  France.    I  have  chosen  this  place  that 
you  may  still  be  her  subjects,  in  the  hope  that  our 
village  may  become  considerable  hereafter. 
[A  general  murmur  of  applause  from  the  men.] 
You  come  here  willingly,  gladly? 

[General  assent.] 
I  pledge  you  what  I  have,  and  the  good  will  of  our 
companj^  for  your  prosperity.     Taillon,  Marche- 
teau,    Kierceraux,   Deschamps  —  what    will     you 
choose  to  do  in  our  village? 

TAILLON 

Monsieur  Laclede,  they  are  all  for  trading  with  tlu- 
Indians,  and  growing  rich. 

LACLEDE 
Some  must  build  the  houses,  some  must   plant    the 
corn,  and  some  must  run  the  mills. 

TAILLON 
So  I  have  said.  I  am  a  miller,  I,  Joseph  Taillon.  But 
to  grind  flour  I  must  have  grain.  There  must  be 
farmers.  Look  you.  Monsieur,  this  will  not  be 
called  your  settlement,  Laclede's  town  —  no.  It 
win  hp  palled  Paincourt  —  short  of  bread. 

24 


LACLEDE 
No,  my  friends  —  we  will  give  it  another  name.    A 
name  deep  in  the  hearts  of  you  Frenchmen  who 
come  here, 

[lit'  takes  oul  a  map  and  si)rcails  it  liefore  him.] 

Look  you,  here  is  the  plan  of  my  city  —  for  this  shall 
come  to  be  a  city  in  good  time.  Here  is  the  public 
square,  the  Grand  Place.  Here  is  the  street  of  the 
church,  high  up,  on  tlie  hill.  Ah,  you  shall  see  it, 
my  friends  —  the  houses  and'  the  towers,  the  peo- 
ple going  about  their  business,  the  boats  with  their 
cargoes  along  the  river's  edge,  the  steeples  and 
the  bells  swinging  on  the  Sabbath  day.  Our  city 
—  and  we  shall  name  it  Saint  Louis ! 

[The  men  take  up  the  words  in  a  low  shout,  "Saint 
Louis!"] 
And  now  —  to  your  work. 

[They  return  to  their  building,  and  he  goes  over  to 
Chouteau.] 
Here  you  will  have  them  begin   my   house.      I  will 
come  back  soon. 

[He  goes  back  to  his  canoe.] 
Goodbye,  Auguste. 

CHOUTEAU 
An  re  voir,  father. 

[As  Laclede  disappears,  the  Indians  —  Missouris  — 
enter  from  the  left,  coming  down  and  surrounding  the 
men  eagerly.  Some  of  them  start  to  set  up  tepees.  Tlie 
Chief,  with  a  group  of  bi'aves,  approaches  Chouteau, 
who  is  evidently  disturbed,  but  stands  his  ground.] 

MISSOURI  CHIEF 

You  come  to  live  on  our  lands? 

CHOUTEAU 
This  is  Monsieur  Laclede's  land. 

MISSOURI  CHIEF 

What  you  givp  us? 

2.1 


CHOUTEAU 

1  give  you  nothing.  Monsieur  Laclede  will  deal  with 

you,  when  he  comes. 

[As  they  stand  speaking,  a  brave  tries  to  steal  a 
blanket  from  the  packs;  Chouteau  sees  him,  shouts  at 
him,  ami  drives  him  off;  as  Chouteau  turns  back,  a 
group  of  sfjuaws  comes  up  on  the  other  side,  whining 
and  begging.] 

CHOUTEAU 

If  you  want  anything,  you  must  work,  as  we  do. 

[The  squaws  nod  assent,  the  braves  turning  indig- 
nantly away.] 

Here,  Taillon,  bid  them  help  yon  in  the  digging  of 
the  cellar ;  we  will  give  them  some  vermillion  when 
they  have  done. 

[The  squaws  begin  work  carrying  earth  out  of  the 
cellar,  as  the  settlers  set  up  the  house;  the  braves  and 
children  are  continually  trying  to  steal  from  the  packs, 
and  are  continually  chased  away  by  the  men. 

Enter  a  group  of  settlers,  right ;  they  see  the  Indians, 
and  draw  together  closely,  calling  to  Chouteau.] 

A  SETTLER 
Is  this  Laclede's  settlement? 

CHOUTEAU 
Yes,  IVionsieur. 

[They  consult  together,  gesturing  toward  the  Indian 
tepees.] 

Will  yon  not  make  camp  with  us  ?  Monsieur  Laclede 
would  welcome  you. 

SETTLER 

We  will  not  come  while  the  Missouris  are  here.    No. 

[The  settlers  go  back  as  they  came.  The  Indians 
again  crowd  around  Choiiteau,  begging.  He  and  Tail- 
lon are  hard  put  to  it  to  keep  them  from  carrying  off 
the  goods.  Re-enter  Laclede.  The  Indians  fall  back 
as  he  approaches,  and  the  Chief  steps  forward.] 
26 


MISSOURI  CHIEB^ 

Father,  will  you  uot  sit  in  council  with  us,  for  we 
wish  to  make  our  village  here  with  you. 

[Laclede  nods,  and  the  Indians  sit  in  council,  Laclede 
and  the  Chief  in  the  center.] 

Father,  we  are  your  children.    We  are  your  hungry 

and  homeless  children.     We  are  worthy  of  your 

pity.    We  are  like  the  wild  fowl  that  seek  for  open 

water,  where  they  may  rest  from  the  storm.    We 

have  wandered  in  many  places,  but   here   is    the 

})lace  we  like  best.    And  here  we  have  chosen  to 

make  our  home,  with  you. 

LACLEDE 

My  children,  when  you  followed  the  wild  fowl  to  the 
open  water,  you  followed  bad  guides.  For  in  the 
open  the  eagles  can  best  find  you,  and  swoop  upon 
you,  and  devour  you. 

MISSOURI  CHIEF 
Our  father  will  protect  us  from  the  eagles. 

LACLEDE 

You  Missouris  will  not  be  eaten  by  the  eagles.  But 
you  must  know  that  at  Fort  Chartres  are  seven 
hundred  warriors  who  are  your  enemies.  They 
wait  to  fight  the  English.  But  if  they  learn  that 
you  are  here,  they  will  come  and  destroy  you.  I 
can  not  help  you.  If  you  would  not  have  your 
women  and  children  torn  to  pieces,  if  you  would 
not  be  slain,  you  warriors,  you  will  not  follow  the 
wild  fowl,  but  listen  to  men  who  are  wise.  Go 
back  to  your  old  places.  I  will  give  you  powder 
and  lead  that  you  may  hunt  on  the  way.  I  speak 
to  you  as  a  good  father,  but  I  can  not  save  you 
from  your  foes. 

27 


MISSOURI  ClliEF 

Father,  our  ears  have  been  open.  Have  pity  on  our 
women  and  children,  and  give  them  a  little  corn. 
We  have  heard  your  wisdom  and  we  will  go  back 
to  our  old  villages. 

[Laclede  beckons;  Taillon  and  Chouteau  bring  out 
some  sacks  of  corn,  red  cloth,  and  bags  of  powder  and 
bullets.  The  warriors  take  the  gifts.  Chouteau  then 
calls  the  squaws  from  the  cellar,  and  gives  them  each  a 
httle  Vermillion.  The  Indians  take  up  their  belongings 
and  depart,  the  warriors  going  first,  the  women  follow- 
ing witli  the  camp  equipage. 

As  the  Indians  disappear  Laclede  comes  down  right 
to  greet  Madame  Chouteau,  who  comes  in  with  her  chil- 
dren in  a  cart.  She  is  followed  almost  immediately  by 
a  group  of  settlers  and  their  families,  including  those 
who  entered  before  and  withdrew  on  account  of  the 
Indians.  As  Madame  Chouteau  comes  forward  toward 
the  center  of  the  stage,  Auguste  sees  her,  and  with  a 
glad,  boyish  cry,  runs  into  her  outstretched  arms.  To- 
gether they  go  into  the  house  which  has  been  set  up, 
While  the  settlers  busy  themselves  with  their  encamp- 
ments and  the  building  of  their  houses. 

A  chime  is  heard,  and  while  it  rings  the  people  set 
the  scene  for  the  coming  of  St.  Ange. 

As  the  chimes  cease  to  ring,  drums  are  heard,  and  a 
company  of  twenty  French  soldiers  enters ;  they  swing 
up  stage,  and  halt  near  Laclede's  house.  Enter,  follow- 
ing them.  Captain  St.  Ange.  with  Judge  Lefebvre, 
Notary  Labusciere,  and  other  gentlemen,  followed  by 
their  servants.  Laclede  steps  forward  and  welcomes 
them.] 

LACLEDE 

We  are  most  happy  in  welcoming  you  to  Saint  Louis, 
Captain  St.  Ange. 

ST.  ANGE 

And  we  in  coming,  Monsieur  Laclede.  We  have 
given  up  Fort  Chartres  to  the  English,  and  now 
throw  ourselves  on  your  hospitality. 

28 


LACLEDE 
You  do  us  much  liouor. 

CAPTALX  DE  VOLSEY 
[To  St.  Ange.] 
Where  will  you  make  your  headquarters,  sir? 

LACLEDE 

111  my  house,  sir.     I  will  be  satisfied   with   nothing 

less. 

ST.  ANGE 

I  accept  your  favor  with  gratitude,  sir. 

[Captain  de  Volsay  returns  to  the  soldiers.] 

LACLEDE 
[To  settlers  who  have  entered.] 
My  friends,  Captain  St.  Ange  has  come  to  set  up  his 
post  here.    You  w^ill  henceforth  be  under  his  pro- 
tection, and  I  trust  that  you  will,  as  I  do,  malie  him 
and  his  men  heartily  w^elcome. 
[Cheers  from  the  settlers.] 

ST.  ANGE 
My  friends,  I  thank  you.     In  the  w^ay  of  my  duty, 
and  for  myself  personally  as  well,  I  am  yours  to 
command. 

LACLEDE 

Wp  have,  sir,  nothing  in  the  form  of  a  civil  govern- 
ment in  our  village.  Will  it  please  you  to  act  as 
Governor,  as  well  as  Commandant? 

ST.  ANGE 

^ly  authority  is  purely  a  military  one. 

JUDGE  LEFEHVRE 
[Coining  forward.] 
Your  authority,  sir,  I  venture  to  maintain,  in  the  ab- 
sence of  any  other  representative  of  the  King,  is 
what  you  choose  to  make  it. 

29 


ST.  ANGE 
What  oflices  do  you  need  of  met 

LACLEDE 

I  have  ventured  to  allot  certain  lands,  and  these  our 
people  should  have  granted  them  by  government. 

ST.  ANGE 

[Turning  to  Lefebvre.] 
Is  this  witliiu  my  power? 

LEFEBVRE 
Certainly,  sir. 

TAILLON 
It  would  be  much  to  our  comfort,  Monsieur  le  Com- 
mandant, if  you  would  give  us  written  lines  for  our 
home  places. 

ST.  ANGE 

If  I  must  act  as  Governor,  so  be  it.  But  I  must  have 
advice.  I  will  appoint  you.  Judge  Lefebvre,  j'ou. 
Monsieur  Labusciere,  and  you.  Monsieur  Laclede, 
as  my  council. 

[The  three  named  bow  low.] 

TAILLON 

And  our  lands  —  shall  we  have  writings  for  them, 
from  the  government? 

ST.  ANGE 

Surely.  Labusciere,  make  ready  the  grants  for  my 
signature. 

[Labusciere  bows.] 

LACLEDE 

And,  Monsieur  Labusciere,  make  out  first  among 
them  a  grant  of  the  land  where  you  yourself  choose 
to  live. 

30 


LABUSCIERE 
Gra'merci.     Aiul  second,  Monsieur  Lacledo,  I  will 
give  you  tiie  plot  where  your  house  stands. 

ILaclede  bows.  Captain  de  Volsay  comes  forward 
and  salutes,  reporting  to  St.  Ange.] 

s;t.  AXGE 
Attention ! 

[The  soldiers  fall  iu  line.  St.  Ange  draws  his  sword  ; 
the  others  uncover  their  heads.  The  Captain  hauls  up 
a  French  flag  in  front  of  Laclede's  house.  The  soldiers 
fire  a  salute.  The  settlers  cheer.  Ranks  are  broken, 
and  the  settlers  mingle  with  the  soldiers,  while  St. 
Ange.  Laclede  and  the  others  go  into  the  house. 

Again  the  chimes  are  heard. 

"While  the  chimes  sound,  a  number  of  settlers  come 
in.  and  buildings  are  set  up ;  the  movement  of  the 
people,  as  in  the  preceding  scene,  is  gay  and  happy. 

A  man  lands  from  a  canoe,  and  goes  hurriedly  to 
Government  House  :  others  follow  him,  listening ;  a  mes- 
senger comes  running  out  of  the  house  and  off  in  search 
of  Labuseiere.  Then  one  by  the  door  cries  out,  "The 
Spaniards  are  coming!'"  The  cry  "The  Spaniards!" 
is  echoed  about  the  stage ;  children  run  to  their  par- 
ents, and  the  people  take  on  a  watchful,  alarmed  ex- 
pression. 

Labuseiere  comes  hurrying  toward  the  Governor's 
house.] 

A  SETTLER 
[Stopping  Labuseiere.] 
Is  it  true  that  the  Spaniards  are  coming? 

LABUSCIERE 
II  is  true  that  the  Commandant  has  orders  to  surren- 
der the  post  when  they  do  come. 

SETTLER 
And  what  will  they  do?    Will  they  drive  us  awayt 

LABUSCIERE 
We  know  nothing  about  it.    But  in  New  Orleans  our 
people  have   resisted   and   been   shot  down.    We 
want  none  of  that.

No  violence  —  we  must  yield. 

LABUSCIEHE 
Cri\'i'  them  wliat  is  lawfully  theirs  —  no  more. 

[He  goes  toward  tlie  house,  l)iit  meets  St.  Ange  com- 
ing out]. 
Is  the  Spanish  (lovernor  coming-  today? 

ST.  ANGE 
Yes.    Have  you  the  records  —  the  grants  I 

LABUSCIERE 
[Tapping  his  green  bag.] 
All  here,  and  in  order. 

[There  is  a  distant  sound  of  martial  music.  St. 
Ange  and  his  oflficers  wait  at  the  landing,  the  people 
crowding  sullenly  behind  him. 

Enter,  in  a  large  boat,  Governor  Pieruas.  who  steps 
ashore.  St.  Ange  steps  forward  and  bows  stiffly ;  Pier- 
nas  returns  the  bow.] 

ST.  ANGE 
Have  I  the  honor  of  addressing  his  Excellency  Gov- 
ernor Piernas? 
[Piernas  bows.] 
I  am  instructed,  your  Excellency,  to  deliver  to  you 
this  post  of  Saint  Louis.    By  your  leave,  we  will 
haul  do^vTl  our  flag  and  make  our  adieus. 

PIERNAS 
I  must  pray  you,  sir,  not  to  be  in  haste. 

LABUSCIERE 
[Stepping  forward.] 
Your  Excellency,  I  beg  to  deliver  to  you  the  records 
of  the  village  in  due  order,  as  they  have  been  kept 
by  me.    I  am  Labusciere,  the  Notary. 

PIERNAS 

[Taking  the  packet.] 
T  thank  you,  sir.    May  I   inquire   what  record  this 
packet  contains? 

H2 


LABUSCIERE 
Your  Excellency,  it  contains  all  legal  proceedings  of 
a    civil   nature    since    Monsieur  Le  Commandant 
came  here,  five  years  ago.     It  contains  also  the 
grants  of  land  Monsieur  St.  Ange  has  recorded. 

PIERXAS 
I  am  instructed  to  rely  in  all  things  on  the  advice  of 
Monsieur  St.  Ange.  My  first  official  act  must  be 
to  confirm  all  grants  made  by  him.  My  next,  to 
invite  him  to  remain  here  during  his  good  pleas- 
ure. 

LABUSCIERE 
Your  Excellency,  we  are  overjoyed! 

ST.   AXGE 
I  have  grown  old  in  the  service  here.    There  is  no 
place  I  love  better  than  this.    I  am  at  your  service 
for  the  future.    And  now,  sir  —  our  flag? 

PIERXAS 
My  friends,  how  can  I  begin  to  govern  till  we  have 
become  acquainted  ?    Still,  —  at  your  pleasure. 
[The  French  flag  comes  down.     Laclede  steps  for- 
ward.] 

LACLEDE 
Your  Excellency,  I  beg  the  honor  of  offering  you  the 
hospitality  of  my  house.    I  am  Monsieur  Laclede. 
[A  servant  bi'ings  out  a  tray  with  glasses.] 

PIERXAS 

Sir,  I  look  forward  hopefully  to  your  friendship. 

[They  drink  solemnly  to  the  Spanish  flag,  which  is 
run  up  l)efore  the  house.  The  slaves  unload  the  Gov- 
ernor's luggage,  and  all  go  in,  as  the  chimes  sound. 
During  the  chimes,  many  new  settlers  come  on,  and 
new  buiUlings  are  rai.sed.  among  them  the  Church,  and 
the  stockades  at  left  and  right  of  the  stage.  As  the 
hells  cease  the  foliage  drops  from  the  towers  and  they 
are  h^ft  as  watch  towers  at  the  ends  of  the  fortifica- 
tions. Li  the  stockades,  right  and  left,  are  gates. 
33 


Entor  a  ri'lip:ioiis  procession,  8ingiii<r.  with  Pore 
Oihaulf  Ix'ariii};  the  sacred  objcfts  for  liic  (U'dicatioii 
of  llic  new  Cliureli.  The  people  kneel  as  the  procession 
passes,  and  many  follow  into  the  Church. 

Enter  Trudeau  and  his  school,  fifty  or  sixty  boys, 
all  studying  their  lessons  at  the  top  of  the  voice ;  when- 
ever one  stops  readinj;  aloud.  Trudeau  whips  him.  A 
couple  of  Spanish  soldiers  pass  the  school,  and  some 
of  the  boys  follow  them,  moekiiifj  them  ;  to  this  Trudeau 
pays  no  attention.  The  soldiers  turn  to  chase  the 
boys,  and  Trudeau  faces  them  as  if  unconscious  of  any 
insolence;  he  then  goes  off,  driving  his  school  before 
him. 

As  the  group  goes  up  stage,  an  old  fisherman, 
Quesnel  comes  in  through  the  gate,  running  and  pant- 
ing, and  breaking  through  the  school,  hastens  to  the 
Governor's  house.  He  is  stopped  by  the  sentry.  Gov- 
ernor De  Leyba  comes  out.  assisted  by  a  negro  servant.] 

QUESNEL 
Indians,  your  Excellency!     They  are  coming  down 
upon  lis.    The  English  are  with  thom.   Dnchnrmo 
is  leading  them. 

DE  LEYBA 

Where  did  yon  see  them? 

QUESNEL 
Across  the  river. 

DE  LEYBA 

Nonsense  —  there's  no  danger  —  no  danger  what- 
ever. 

QUESNEL 
I  pray  your  Excellency  to  give  the  alarm,  and  call 
ont  the  soldiers. 

[De  Leyba  turns  away  from  him.] 
We  shall  all  be  killed  — wo  slmll  nil  l..-  killed! 

DE  LEYBA 
Take  him  in.side.    There  are  no  Englisli  in  the  Illi- 
nois.   I  am  sick  of  these  tales. 

[The   soldiers  take   Quesnel   into   the   house.     The 
people   come   out   of   the   Church,  scattering  merrily, 
34 


mauy  with  baskets  going  out  through  the  gates  to  pick 
berries.  Madame  Rigauche  appears,  shepherding  her 
school  of  little  girls. 

There  is  a  sound  of  distant  firing ;  a  pause ;  then 
another  messenger  comes  bursting  through  the  gate, 
crying  out.] 

MESSENGER 
Indians  !    To  arms ! 

[The  people  stream  back  through  the  gateway,  run- 
ning for  their  lives.  Governor  De  Leyba  comes  out, 
ordering  the  drums  to  be  beaten  and  the  soldiers  to 
fall  in.  He  is  still  half  carried  by  his  friends.  Lieu- 
tenant Cartabona  draws  up  the  troops,  and  De  Leyba 
tells  them  off  in  squads  to  the  right  gate,  to  the  watch- 
towers,  and  to  the  stockades. 

The  fugitives  still  come  in  through  the  left  gate ;  fir- 
ing is  heard  from  the  left,  and  distant  war  whoops. 

Citizens  with  muskets,  gather  to  the  defense  of  the 
north  gate  [left].  They  drag  up  a  brass  cannon  and 
mount  it  just  above  the  gate;  this  cannon  is  fired  as 
rapidly  as  possible  during  the  fighting.  After  the 
first  volley  is  fired  by  the  defenders  of  the  gate,  the 
Indians,  trappers  and  English  soldiers  are  seen  beyond 
it,  alternately  firing  and  running  up.  The  conflict  cen- 
ters about  the  gate  and  the  stockade  just  above  it. 

Governor  De  Leyba  orders  the  gate  closed.  The 
people  are  about  to  obey  him  when  another  fugitive 
staggers  through  wounded;  at  this  the  people  refuse 
to  close  the  gate,  but  set  themselves  to  its  defense.  The 
struggle  for  the  gate  becomes  more  desperate,  the  fire 
from  without  being  much  heavier  than  within.  A  rush 
of  the  assailants  drives  the  defenders  back,  and  the 
cannon  is,  for  a  moment,  deserted ;  Indians  are  seen 
at  the  stockade,  clambering  over  to  take  the  cannon. 

At  this  instant  Madame  Rigauche  appears,  wearing 
a  man's  coat,  and  carrying  a  musket.  She  advances 
to  the  stockade ;  the  people  shout  loyally  and  rush  for- 
ward to  renew  the  struggle ;  the  Indians  retreat,  some 
of  them  being  killed  and  falling  inside  the  stockade. 
The  cannon  is  re-taken,  fired  again,  and  the  enemy 
driven  back;  the  fire  outside  lessens;  the  English  are 
heard  sounding  a  retreat ;  the  people,  with  a  great 
shout,  close  the  gate ;  as  they  do  so.  Governor  De  Leyba 
falls  fainting  and  is  carried  into  Government  House. 

35 


Tilt'  cliiiiics.  While  the  iiclls  art'  ht-ard.  miinlxM's  of 
new  si'llltTs  come  in;  a  new  Governor  enters  from  the 
river  with  his  little  retinue;  and  the  rejoicing  of  the 
people  over  their  victory  sinks  away  to  the  every-day 
current  of  alTairs. 

Enter  from  the  ri^'ht.  the  Sans  (Uilottes  Society, 
led  by  Coi^niard.  They  begin  to  sing  the  ^larseillaise; 
some  carry  tricolor  l)annei*s.  and  many  wear  Phrygian 
caps:  they  move  across,  singing. 

A  Spanish  officer  with  a  detachment  of  soldiers 
comes  out  of  Government  House,  goes  directly  to 
the  group  and  arrests  Coignard  and  two  others.  They 
are  immediately  taken  to  the  river,  put  in  boats,  and 
rowed  away  down  the  river;  the  others  of  the  Sans 
Cullottes  disperse,  a  small  group  of  the  bolder  spirits 
following  after  the  officer  and  singing  a  mocking  re- 
frain from  the  "Chanson  de  L'Annee  du  Coup."  All 
this  action  is  swiftly  accomplished,  and  is  little  more 
than  a  momentary  interlude,  the  chimes  sounding 
again  immediately. 

While  the  ])ells  are  ringing,  new  settlers  come  in. 
many  of  them  Americans,  woodsmen  from  Kentucky, 
and  farmers  from  Illinois.  As  the  bells  cease,  a  man 
goes  up  from  Government  House  and  nails  a  large 
proclamation  on  the  Church  door.  The  people  crowd 
to  read  it,  among  them  Charles  Gratiot,  who  comes 
down  stage  triumphantly  after  seeing  it.  Pierre  Chou- 
teau, coming  in  from  the  Indian  country  with  a  num- 
ber of  men  bearing  packs,  calls  out  to  him.] 

PIERRE   CHOUTEAU 
Mr.  Gratiot!    Gratiot! 

GRATIOT 
Please  don't  stop  me,  Pierre.   There's  great  news 

PIERRE  CHOUTEAU 

What  is  it? 

GRATIOT 

The  Americans  are  taking  possession.    The  post  is 

ceded. 

PIERRE   CHOUTEAU 

You  call  tiiat  -reat  news?  Are  j^ou  not  a  Frenchman, 
Gratiot? 

36 


GRATIOT 
I  was  born  French,  but  by  conviction  I  am  a  repub- 
lican, and  a  citizen  of  the  United  States.  That  I 
hold  better  than  to  be  of  French  blood  and  a  Span- 
ish subject,  sir.  Mark  me,  this  will  be  the  begin- 
ning of  a  great  prosperity  for  us. 

PIERRE  CHOUTEAU 

I  hope  it  may  prove  so. 

[He  goes  on.] 

[Enter  Meriwether  Lewis.] 

GRATIOT 

Ah,  Mr.  Lewis.     Your  expedition  will  not  have  to 

wait  much  longer.    The  river  will  now  be  open. 

LEWIS 
Yes,  Mr.  Gratiot,  Captain  Stoddard  is  crossing  to- 
day. 

GRATIOT 
Who  acts  for  France? 

LEWIS 
Captain  Stoddard  has  authority  from  M.  de  Laussat. 

GRATIOT 

The  Governor  has  given  notice  to  the  people. 

[He  points  to  the  crowd  reading  the  notice:   the 
people  regard  it  sullenly.] 
I  fear  they  do  not  understand. 

LEWIS 
They  have  known  for  months  that  the  place  was  to 
be  transferred.    There  will  be  no  difficulty. 

GRATIOT 
They  have  known,  sir,  but  they  have  not  rejoiced. 
That  means  they  do  not  understand. 

[Enter  Captain  Stoddard  with  his  troops;  Lieuten- 
ant Worrell  draws  them  up  at  the  left  of  the  stage,  and 
waits.     Captain  Stoddard  salutes  Captain  Lewis,  and 
37 


greets  CJratiot.     Enter,  from  Uovei'iiuieiit  House,  CJov- 
ernor  Delassus  and  liis  officers. 

Captains  Stoddard  and  Lewis,  witli  a  t?nard  of  eight 
men,  approacli  the  Governor  and  deliver  documents. 
The  citizens  gather  about,  and  Governor  Delassus  ad- 
dresses them.] 

DELASSUS 

People  of  Upjx'r  Loui.siana :     By  the  King's  com- 

iiiaiid,  I  am  about  to  deliver  ii])  this  post  and  its 

dependencies.      The   flag   under   which   you   have 

been  protected  for  six  and  thirty  years  is  to  be 

withdrawn.  From  this  hour  you  are  released  from 

the  oath  of  fidelity  you  took  to  support  it.     The 

faith  and  courage  with  which  you  have  guarded 

and  defended  it  will  never  be  forgotten.    And  as 

the  representative  of  his  Most  Catholic  Majesty, 

I  entertain  the  most  sincere  wishes  for  your  future 

prosperity. 

[The  people  take  off  their  hats  and  bow  in  greeting 
and  farewell.    He  turns  to  Captain  Stoddard.] 

Be  it  known  that  I,  Don  Carlos  Dehault  Delassus,  in 
quality  of  Lieutenant  Governor  of  Upper  Louisi- 
ana, at  the  requirements  duly  made  by  you,  sir,  de- 
liver to  you  the  full  possession,  sovereignty  and 
government  of  Upper  Louisiana,  with  the  military 
posts,  quarters,  and  fortifications  thereto  belong- 
ing. 

CAPTAIN  STODDARD 

And,  I,  Amos  Stoddard,  as  sole  agent  and  commis- 
sary in  behalf  of  the  French  Republic,  do  acknowl- 
edge myself  to  have  received  the  said  possession, 
on  the  terms  mentioned,  of  which  I  acknowledge 
myself  satisfied. 

[The  Governor  and  Captain  Stoddard  sign  the  docu- 
ments; a  signal  is  given  and  a  salute  fired  from  the 
fort,  as  the  Spanish  flag  comes  down  and  the  French 
goes  up.  !Many  of  the  people  move  up  toward  the  fort, 
greeting  the  flag  with  upraised  arms.] 
38 


GRATIOT 

Captain  Stoddard,  you  can  not  know  what  it  means 
to  our  people  to  be  again  under  the  flag  of  France. 
To  you  it  is  only  the  duty  of  a  day.  To  them  it  is 
the  air  of  home.  They  are  all  exiles,  some  of  them 
born  of  fathers  and  mothers  in  exile.  This  flag 
speaks  to  them  of  the  land  many  of  them  have 
never  seen  —  of  France.  You  see  them  move  closer 
—  to  be  under  it.  There  need  be  no  haste,  sir,  in 
your  duty.  Let  it  remain  for  a  little  while.  Let 
them  rejoice  under  it.  They  will  be  the  better  cit- 
izens of  America  —  tomorrow. 

STODDARD 
I  am  entirely  willing  to  do  as  you  ask,  Mr.  Gratiot. 


GRATIOT 

You  hear  that,  my  friends.   The  American  Captain 
will  not  change  the  flag  for  a  little  while. 

[The  people  cheer,  music  begins,  and  they  dance, 
the  whole  village  putting  on  instant  festivity. 

As  the  festival  dance  comes  to  an  end,  Captain 
Stoddard  again  gives  a  signal,  and  the  French  flag 
flutters  down.  The  Spanish  soldiers  march  down 
stage  and  off  to  the  right,  the  American  troops  march- 
ing up  to  take  their  place.  The  American  flag  is  run 
up,  and  Gratiot  steps  forward  and  calls  for  cheers. 
These  are  given  heartily  by  the  soldiers,  but  without 
enthusiasm  by  the  people,  who  return  quietly  to  their 
houses,  leaving  the  stage  clear.]

TliK   WATCHMAN 

[Appearing  on  the  stockade,  at  the  h'ft  of  the  stage.] 

Now  stand  wo  on  the  l)attlements  of  Time. 

Look  l)aokwnr<l,  and  we  soe  tlio  wilderness 

Slowly,  with  dauntless  courage,  pierced  and  known, 

The  trails  l)laz(Ml  out,  the  rivers  charted  clear 

And  all  the  secret  forest  ways  made  plain 

To  the  pale  fathers  and  the  voyageurs. 

The  Frenchmen  came  and  'stablished  villages 

Where  life  flowed  simply,  singing  as  it  flowed. 

The  Spaniards  hronght  their  flag  and  held  the  land, 

Serenely  governing  what  they  never  loved. 

But  here  —  but  here  —  another  dawn  uplifts 

A  newer  day.    Far-reaching  eyes  be  ours 

And  high  prophetic  light  and  utterance. 

For  the  new  nation  takes  the  maiden  land 

Triumphantly  as  youth  would  clasp  a  bride 

And  laughing  with  indomitable  joy 

Swings  wide  the  door,  and  lights  his  welcoming  fires 

And  calls  his  people  from  the  whole  wide  world. 

Behold,  they  come,  with  resolute,  eager  march 

To  fell  the  forests,  plough  the  prairies  deep 

Build  cities,  toil,  and  feed  the  ageing  earth. 

Look  forward  now,  with  these  unfaltering  men, 

These  women  with  the  calm  courageous  eyes, 

These  pioneers.    Behold  your  city  pass 

(Her  life  above  these  strifes  and  mockeries) 

Toward  the  grave  states  of  peace  and  brotherhood, 

The  dawning  vision  of  her  destiny. 

[The  Watchman  disappears.] 


40 


THIRD  MOVEIVIENT 

[The  action  begins  with  the  Lewis  and  Clark  Expe- 
dition, which  sets  out  in  a  keel  boat  and  two  pirogues. 
These  boats  come  in  from  the  left,  take  on  Lewis  and 
some  others,  and  go  out  the  way  they  came,  Captain 
Stoddard  bidding  them  farewell.  As  they  go  out  of 
sight  covered  wagons  drawn  by  oxen  come  in  from  the 
left,  and  cross  the  stage,  pausing  now  and  then.  Cap- 
tain Stoddard  salutes  General  William  Henry  Harri- 
son, who  comes  in  from  the  left.  General  Harrison 
then  turns  and  goes  back  to  the  left,  where,  in  the  fore- 
ground, he  meets  a  delegation  of  Sauk  and  Fox  In- 
dians, and  holds  council  with  them ;  in  this  he  is  as- 
sisted by  Pierre  Chouteau  and  other  leading  traders. 
General  Wilkinson  arrives  and  Captain  Stoddard 
turns  over  the  post  to  him.  Up  stage  considerable 
parties  of  hunters  and  trappers,  Kentucky  pioneers, 
pass,  stopping  for  various  goods. 

General  Wilkin.son  greets  Aaron  Burr,  and  presents 
him  to  certain  of  the  leading  citizens,  who  receive  him 
coldly.  Burr  proceeds  down  the  river  in  a  ten  oared 
barge,  the  General  seeing  him  off  and  going  back  to 
Government  House.  More  of  the  hunters  and  trappers 
pass,  some  of  them  pausing  to  water  their  horses.  Keel 
boats  come  up  the  river,  and  their  freight  is  trans- 
ferred to  wagons,  which  go  on  to  the  westward.  The 
old  French  type  of  dress  is  rapidly  disappearing,  the 
various  American  t\T3es  taking  its  place ;  some  of  these 
are  hunters,  some  farmers,  and  some  gentlemen  in 
black  or  plum  colored  coats.  Many  wagons  pass,  each 
\\nth  its  troop  of  settlers,  many  of  them  walking  beside 
or  behind  the  vehicle ;  also  a  few  carriages  with  ladies, 
accompanying  wagons  loaded  with  household  gear. 

New  buildings  are  erected,  until  the  stage  assumes 
the  look  of  a  scjuare  surrounded  by  business  structures. 
41 


Si{;ns  appear  on  the  fronts  of  some  of  the  buildings. 
A  ncws-ltoy  apjx'ar.s,  crying  the  Missouri  Gazette.  The 
settlers  who  jiass  are  now  nearly  all  farmers,  and  rep- 
resent various  Eurojx'an  nationalities  as  well  as  tlie 
Eastern  and  Southern  states. 

John  F.  Riddick  appears  on  horseback,  just  returned 
from  Washington,  and  announces  that  he  has  in  his 
saddle  bags  a  copy  of  the  Congressional  order  giving 
the  unclaimed  lands  to  the  public  schools;  at  which  a 
group  of  girls  and  boys  cheer  lustily,  and  with  them 
the  old  .selioolma.ster  of  the  French  regime,  Trudeau. 

After  this  the  procession  becomes  fairly  continuous, 
as  the  light  fades,  boats  along  the  river  moving  ^vith 
the  crowds  of  people  and  the  lines  of  white-covered 
wagons.  A  sound  of  a  loud  whistle  from  the  river 
draws  the  people  do\ATi  to  the  levee  to  welcome  the 
first  steamboat,  the  General  Pike,  which  comes  to  dock 
wuth  a  great  noise  of  clanking  engine  and  escaping 
steam,  a  group  of  darkies  singing  on  the  deck.  As 
they  sing,  the  stage  gradually  clears,  and  the  boat 
moves  on  into  place  at  the  left  of  the  stage  as  the 
chimes  are  heard. 

The  bells  ring  gaily,  as  if  in  celebration,  and  the 
people  in  holiday  attire  pour  into  the  streets.  A  mes- 
senger rides  in  from  the  right,  shouting.] 

MESSENGER 
Lafayette  is  coming!   General  Lafayette  is  coming! 

THE  CROWD 

[Shouting.] 
Lafayette ! 

[Governor  Clark,  Governor  Coles,  and  Mr.  Benton 
come  out  and  speak  with  the  Messenger.] 

GOVERNOR  CLARK 
Where  is  General  Lafayette! 

MESSENGER 
He's  ]an(led  at  Carondelet.   He's  coming  this  way, 
Governor. 

GOVERNOR  CLARK 

Will  yon  come  with  me,  Governor  Coles,  and  you,  Mr. 
Benton?    It  shall  ho  our  privilege  to  welcome  him. 

42 


BENTON 

A  privilege  we  sliall  be  sharing  with  the  whole  city, 
sir,  unless  we  go  to  meet  him.    After  you,  sir. 

[The  three  go  out  solemnly,  arm  in  arm,  the  people 
standing  aside  to  let  them  pass. 

As  they  disappear,  a  baud  is  heard  playing,  and 
Captain  Hill  enters,  leading  his  militia  company,  the 
Marions.  The  men  are  variously  uniformed ;  some  are 
armed  with  rifles,  and  some  with  sticks  and  umbrellas.] 

THE  CROWD 
The   Mary   Anns!    Hurrah,   here   come   the   Mary 

Anns! 

[There  is  much  loud  laughter  and  shouting.  The 
company  is  put  through  its  manual,  with  much  friend- 
ly advice  from  the  crowd.] 

CAPTAIN  HILL 
Attention,  Company.  Gentlemen,  General  Lafayette, 
the  great  apostle  of  liberty,  is  coming. 
[He  pauses  to  take  snuff,  nervously.] 
You  must  prepare  to  salute  General  Lafayette,  the 
great  apostle  of  libertj'.

Attention,  Company. 

[He  looks  them  over  critically.] 
All  you  in  roundabouts  or  short-tailed  coats,  take  the 
rear  rank.  All  you  in  long-tailed  coats  take  the 
front  rank. 

[Tlie  men  change  places,  while  the  Captain  takes 
snuff;  again  he  inspects  them.] 
Now  all  of  you  who  have  sticks  or  umbrellas  in  the 
front  rank,  change  with  those  having  girns  in  the 
rear  rank. 

[The  exchange  is  made.] 
We  must  present  an  appearance,  gentlemen.  And  re- 
member to  cheer  all  together  —  welcome   Lafay- 
ette.

ward one  pace.]  ^^

CAPTAIN  HILL 

I'll  be  coiisariR'tl  it'  it  isn't  a  scaiulalons  shame  to  l)e 
guilty  of  such  conduct  ri.uiit  in  tlic  presence  of 
General  Lafayette  —  at  the  most  important  mo- 
ment of  a  man's  life,  and  when  he  is  about  to  sa- 
lute General  Lafayette.  If  it  warn't  for  General 
Lafayette,  I'd  put  you  under  arrest  —  I'd  — 

[The  Captain  is  interrui)t('d  by  shouts  of  "Here  he 
comes!"] 
Present  Arms ! 

[The  two  Governors  and  Mr.  Benton  come  back,  es- 
corting General  Lafayette,  who  rides  in  a  carriage. 
The  crowd  sweeps  across  in  front  of  the  i\Iarions.  The 
carriage  stops.     The  crowd  shouts  in  unison.] 

THE  CROWD 

Welcome  Lafayette!  Welcome  Lafayette!  Welcome 
Lafayette ! 

[General  Lafayette  steps  from  the  carriage.  Dr. 
Lane,  the  Mayor,  stands  forward  from  the  crowd  on 
the  left;  behind  the  Mayor  are  some  little  girls,  carry- 
ing ba.skets  of  flowers.] 

DR.  LANE 

To  you,  sir,  our  city  of  Saint  Louis  offers  its  most 
heartfelt  greeting.  We  count  ourselves  fortunate 
indeed  to  pay  what  tribute  we  may  to  your  glori- 
ous services  to  the  cause  of  liberty  in  America  — 
to  freedom  and  order  in  France.  We  need  not 
remind  you  that  this  city  was  founded  by  French 
men,  and  that  even  to-day  you  are  here  doubly 
among  your  countr>inen. 

[At  the  close  of  the  Mayor's  speech,  the  little  girls 
go  forward  and  scatter  the  flowers  before  Lafayette.] 
44 


LAFAYETTE 

I  am  deeply  moved  by  what  you  say,  sir,  and  by  this 
welcome  which  everywhere  is  mine  —  these  open 
arms  of  America.  I  know  it  is  for  no  merit  of  my 
own  that  you  raise  arches  and  strew  flowers  before 
me,  but  because  I  was  an  officer  —  I  may  even 
boast,  a  friend  —  of  Washington.  And  now  it 
makes  me  very  proud,  as  I  journey  through  this 
broad  free  land,  to  remember  that  I  gave  some  ser- 
vice to  the  making  of  it,  some  comfort  in  the  hour 
of  its  need.  And  by  that  service  I  shall,  I  hope, 
ever  be  numbered  among  your  countrymen. 

[As  Lafayette  ceases  to  speak.  Old  Alexander  Belh- 
sime  comes  forward,  holding  himself  very  erect ;  he 
wears  the  uniform  of  the  French  troops  who  fought 
under  Lafayette  at  Yorktown.  The  band  plays  the 
]^Iarseillaise!  Lafayette  turns  and  looks  intently  at 
Alexander;  the  old  man  salutes;  Lafayette  steps  for- 
ward swiftly  and  embraces  him.  The  crowd  cheers. 
Lafayette  stoops,  picks  up  a  flower,  and  fixes  it  in  the 
veteran's  cap.  Alexander  salutes  again,  turns  with 
an  effort,  and  marches  proudly  away  ;  the  band  changes 
to  Yankee  Doodle. 

Colonel  Benton  steps  forward.] 

BENTON 

The  ladies  and  gentlemen  of  the  city,  sir,  have  pre- 
pared some  entertainment  in  your  honor.  They 
wait  to  welcome  you. 

LAFAYETTE 

I  cannot  too  highly  praise,  sir,  the  spirit  of  their  hos- 
pitality. 

[Lafayette  bows;  a  number  of  ladies  and  gentlemen 
are  presented,  and  the  entire  party  sets  out  for  the 
ball,  the  ladies  and  gentlemen  of  the  city,  in  a  gala 
procession,  following  the  guest  and  his  escort.  As  the 
procession  passes  off,  the  chimes  ring  again. 

New  buildings  are  now  set  up,  the  market  and  busi- 
ness buildings  clo-sing  in  the  levee. 

While  the  bells  are  ringing,  groups  of  immigrants 
45 


come  in;  the  people  in  the  dress  of  the  last  episode 
disappear,  and  the  fashions  of  1847  supplant  those  of 
1825. 

The  Committee  appointed  to  welcome  the  volunteers 
back  from  Mexico  meets  informally  on  the  levee.] 

MR.  BOWLIN 
Gentlemen,  I  i)rotest  against  waiting  longer.  All  we 
want  is  to  give  the  men  who  fought  in  Mexico  the 
heartiest  welcome  in  our  power.  I  say,  don't  let 
the  business  grow  cold,  while  you  wait  for  the  last 
boat  to  come  straggling  back  with  the  last  man. 

McGUNNEGLE 
1  know  you  have  your  speech  ready,  Mr.  Bowlin  — 

BOWLIN 
I  am  not  speaking  personally,  Mr.  McGunnegle.  But 
if  I  am  to  welcome  them,  I'm  not  the  man  to  do  it 
a  week  too  late,  when  the  emotion  of  the  hour  has 
passed. 

COLONEL  GRLMSLEY 

It's  not  only  the  men,  Mr.  Bowlin  —  it's  the  guns. 

McGUNNEGLE 

Colonel  Grimsley,  I  agree  with  you.  Your  parade 
will  be  vastly  more  impressive  with  the  captured 
guns  in  the  line. 

[Enter  Mr.  Chambers,  the  Secretary  of  the  Com- 
mittee.] 

COLONEL  GRIMSLEY 

And  the  standards,  Mr.  McGunnegle !  There 's  a  black 
flag  taken  from  the  Mexicans  at  the  battle  of  Sac- 
ramento — 

McGUNNEGLE 

In  a  word,  gentlemen,  we  must  wait.  The  City  Coun- 
cil has  voted  us  money  for  the  celebration,  and  we 
must  not  spend  it  prematurely. 

46 


CHAMBERS 

Haven't  you  beard,  gentlemen?   The  Mayor  has  ve- 
toed the  order. 

THE  COMMITTEE 
What's  that?    Vetoed  the  money ! 

CPIAMBERS 
It's  true.    Mayor  MuUanphy  has  vetoed  the  order. 

McGUNNEGLE 

You  hear  that,  gentlemen.   What's  to  be  done? 

CHAMBERS 
He  says  we  must  raise  the  fund  ourselves. 

COLONEL  GRIMSLEY 
What  else  could  you  expect  of  Bryan  Mullanphy. 
Mr.  McGunnegle,  you  are  chairman  of  this  Com- 
mittee. I  move  you,  sir,  that  this  Committee  un- 
dertake to  raise  the  necessary  funds,  and  that  the 
Mayor  be  told  to  go  to  the  devil. 

ALL 
Ave,  aye. 

McGUNNEGLE 

The  ayes  have  it.     Mr.  Secretary,  will  you  at  once 
make  public  this  action  of  the  Committee. 
[Chambers  bows.    Enter  Mayor  Mullanphy.] 

CHAMBERS 

Here  he  comes,  gentlemen. 

[Exit  Chambers.] 

McGUNNEGLE 
Mr.  :Mayor,  as  chairman  of  the  Committee  appointed 
to  receive  the  men  of  Battery  A  on  their  return,  T 
am  informed  that  you  have  vetoed  the  Council's 
order  setting  aside  money  for  the  celebration. 

47 


Mri.LANlMIV 
You  are  correctly  informed,  Mr.  McGunnegle. 

McGUNNEGLE 

And  what  do  yuii  lucaii  by  it,  sir? 

MULLANPIIY 
What  do  you  mean  by  asking?    It  is  my  duty  to  de- 
cide what  shall  be  done  officially. 

McGUNNEGLE 

Then,  sir,  as  chairman  of  this  Committee,  I  have  to 
inform  you  that  you  are  not  invited  nor  expected 
to  take  any  part  in  the  welcome  to  the  volunteers, 
and  that  your  place  on  the  Committee  has  been 
otherwise  filled. 

MULLANPHY 

I'm  obliged  to  you  for  letting  me  off. 

[Enter  Bleniierhassett,  with  a  paper  in  his  hand.] 

BOWLIN 
[To  Mullanphy.] 
We  regret  this  step,  sir  — 

BLENNERHASSETT 

Gentlemen,  I've  a  good  word  for  you.  I've  a  sub- 
scription here  for  half  the  money  we  need  for  the 
celebration. 

[General  applause.] 

McGUNNEGLE 

There,  sir.  That  shows  someone  cares  that  the  men 
who  have  fought  and  bled  for  their  country  shall 
not  lack  a  welcome.  It  may  not  be  official,  Mr. 
Maj^or ;  it  may  not  be  in  the  line  of  any  man's  duty, 
as  he  sees  his  duty,  but  it  comes  from  the  heart. 

BLENNERHASSETT 

Wait  a  moment,  Mr.  ^SfcGunnegle  — 

48 


McGUNNEGLE 

1  am  speaking  for  the  Committee,  Mr.  Blannerhas- 
sett.  The  flavor  iiiidorstaiKls  us  perfectly.  Now 
sir,  who  gave  you  the  subscription? 

BLENNERHASSETT 

IM  like  mightily  not  to  tell  you.  It  was  —  His 
Honor,  the  Mayor. 

[The  Committee  is  much  taken  back. 
Dr.  Sykes  enters  hastily,  from  the  right.] 

SYKES 

Great  news!  The  "Pride  of  the  West"  is  docked. 
Captain  Hudson  and  the  guns  are  aboard. 

COLONEL  GRIMSLEY 

The  guns!  The  parade  must  start.  Gentlemen,  to 
your  posts ! 

[Grimsley  mounts  his  horse  and  rides  off,  right.] 

McGUNNEGLE 

Your  Honor,  I  hope  our  misunderstanding  is  at  an 
end.  I  regret  our  hasty  action,  sir,  more  than  I 
can  say. 

]\IULLANPHY 

[Taking  his  hand  and  slapping  him  on  the  shoul- 
der.] 

I  wish  Blennerhassett  had  kept  still. 

[A  band  is  heard  at  the  right;  children  and  citizens 
troop  in,  many  carrying  flags.  The  parade  enters,  the 
band  leading;  the  Mayor  and  the  Committee  fall  in 
behind  the  band ;  then  the  military  escort  [the  Grays]  ; 
then  the  Battery.  The  crowd  cheers  wildly,  waving 
arms,  hats  and  flags  in  the  air.  The  Battery  halts 
before  the  speaker's  stand,  left  center.  McGunnegle 
presents  Bowlin  and  Senator  Benton,  the  crowd  still 
cheering.  Benton  raises  his  hand  for  silence.] 
49 


BENTON 

Colonel  I  )«>iiiijliaii  and  oflicors  and  men;  You  liavo 
niaiH'lied  I'ar.  and  done  nincli,  and  suffered  much. 
A  year  ago  you  left  home.  You  return  with  tro- 
phies from  fields  the  very  names  of  which  were 
unknown  until  revealed  by  your  enterprise,  illus- 
trated by  your  valor,  immortalized  by  your  deeds. 
History  has  few  such  expeditions  to  record.  A 
thousand  miles  to  the  conquest  of  New  Mexico; 
from  thence,  across  the  long  and  lofty  chain,  the 
Cordilleras  —  without  orders  —  to  the  rich  and 
powerful  city  of  Chihuahua ;  as  far  as  from  Paris 
to  Moscow,  through  hostile  country,  and  a  desert 
whose  ominous  name  is  The  Journey  of  the  Dead. 
A  perilous  enterprise.  No  matter.  Danger  and 
hardship  lent  it  charm.  You  moved  forward,  and 
the  battle  of  Sacramento,  one  of  the  military  mar- 
vels of  the  age,  cleared  the  road  to  Chihuahua. 
Then  the  long  march  to  Monterey.  Ragged  and 
rough  and  ready,  you  arrived  in  General  Taylor's 
camp. 

[Cheers.] 
Y^ou  asked  for  service  —  to  move  upon  the  halls  of 
the  Montezumas.  You  made  your  great  march 
without  orders,  but,  without  knowing  it,  you  were 
fulfilling  orders  which  never  reached  you.  Happy 
the  soldier  who  executes  —  happier  he  who  anti- 
cipates —  command.  The  cannons  rolled  out  of 
Chihuahua  to  arrest  your  march  now  roll  through 
the  streets  of  Saint  Louis  to  grace  your  triumphal 
return.  And  now  let  boundless  honor  and  joy  sa- 
lute your  return  to  the  soil  of  your  state,  to  the 
bosom  of  your  families. 

[Cheers.     The  crowd  calls  wildly  for  Colonel  Doni- 
phan, who  comes  to  the  stand.] 
50 


COLONEL  DONIPHAN 

Fellow  citizens,  I  speak  ouly  for  my  men.  These 
guns,  these  standards,  are  all  we  have  to  say.  But 
I  would  have  you  remember  that  there  is  no  credit 
due  to  me,  that  I  do  not  share  with  all  my  officers; 
nor  to  us  as  officers  any  honor  that  we  do  not  share 
with  every  man  who  went  along.  Our  fortune  has 
been  splendid,  but  so  has  the  loyal  devotion  of  our 
fellows.  Friends,  we  are  glad.  We  are  home.  We 
thank  God. 

[The  crowd  cheers  again,  and  the  procession  starts, 
the  people  following  the  Battery  and  leaving  the  stage 
clear.    For  a  moment  the  chimes  sound. 

A  group  of  German  citizens  from  the  preceding 
scene  enters,  singing  a  verse  from  "Die  Acht-und- 
viertziger. "  They  come  down  stage  and  wait. 
Another  and  larger  group  enters  from  the  right,  laden 
with  boxes,  satchels  and  bundles.  The  first  comers 
run  forward  to  greet  them,  embracing  them  excitedly, 
all  speaking  at  once  in  German.  When  the  moment 
of  greeting  is  over  another  group  enters,  marching  and 
singing  "Das  Treue  Deutsche  Herz,"  [or  other  song 
of  the  time] . 

At  the  close  of  the  song  they  go  off  into  the  city, 
the  first  group  helping  the  new  arrivals. 
Chimes  again  sound,  and  stop  suddenly. 

Excited  groups  of  citizens  enter,  and  lights  are 
seen  flashing  past  windows  of  the  houses.  A  crowd 
gathers  swiftly,  men  for  the  most  part,  in  the  dress 
of  1860.  From  this  point  to  the  close  of  the  Pageant, 
music  is  heard  continuously. 

Enter  a  torchlight  procession,  bearing  banners  and 
transparencies,  and,  toward  the  end.  a  picture  of  Lin- 
coln. The  crowd  in  the  streets  stands  sullenly  aside, 
some  shaking  their  fists  at  the  marchers.  An  angry 
murmur  rises  as  the  picture  moves  along.  The  pro- 
51 


pcssioii  passes  from  sight.  TIh'  imisic  changes,  and  the 
jicdplf  crowd  t(»  the  Itd't,  where  ;i  iie\vsi>a])ci'  hulh-tiii. 
illuudiiated  hy  torchliglit,  is  seen. 

From  this  local  jwint  spreads  through  the  crowd  and 
the  city  the  tidings  from  Fort  Sumter;  and  when  the 
action  of  the  excited  crowd  i)ermits,  groui)s  of  young 
men  are  seen  departing  from  the  two  sides  of  the 
stage — northward  and  southward.  The  music  changes 
to  the  Battle  Hymn  of  the  Kepublic,  and  bodies  of 
Union  troops  are  seen  marching  across  and  to  the 
South,  singing. 

There  is  a  pause  in  the  music  as  they  pass  from  sight, 
and  women's  voices  are  heard  in  the  dist<ance,  at  the 
right,  singing  Dixie. 

They  cease,  and  the  sad  lines  of  wounded  and  prison- 
ers are  brouglit  in,  nurses  and  the  men  of  the  Sanitary 
Commission  working  among  them. 

Again  the  mood  of  the  music  changes,  and  the  people 
gather  by  the  new^spaper  offices.  An  exultant  note 
creeps  in,  and  then  the  news  of  peace  is  sounded,  and 
the  people,  with  fla-gs  and  flowers,  make  momentary 
festival. 

The  music  ceases,  the  lights  disappear.]

THE  8CENE 

The  inimediate  foreground  is  a  wide  band  of  water  curv- 
ing backward  with  symmetrical  sweep  and  disappearing  be- 
hind foliage. 

Beheld  across  this  water,  the  foreground  of  the  stage  is  a 
vast  plaza-space  between  two  high  towei*s. 

At  centre,  from  the  water's  edge,  wide  steps  of  stone  as- 
scend  to  the  stage's  level. 

In  the  middle-ground,  at  centre,  rises  a  flattened  mound, 
to  the  level  top  of  which  rough  steps  lead  up  from  the  plaza. 
Rising  from  this  mound-top  level,  steps  mount  to  the  en- 
trance of  a  roofed  shrine  in  semi-ruin.  In  this  is  a  door 
with  stone  lintel.  Above  the  roof  is  sculptured  a  huge 
semi-circular  symbol  in  stone. 

From  the  plaza  at  equal  distances  to  right  and  left,  two 
lesser  mounds  rise  bare. 

In  the  background  the  facade  of  a  great  temple  with  two 
side  wings  (Mayan  in  architecture)  shuts  off  the  horizon. 
In  these  wings  are  gates  of  two  wide  entrances  to  the  plaza. 
Near  the  top  of  the  facade,  along  its  full  length,  runs  a 
stone  jut,  like  the  top  of  a  cyclopian  wall. 

Shrine,  temple  and  towers  resemble,  in  their  architecture 
and  car\'ings.  the  ancient  Aztec  and  Mayan  relics  of  Central 
America,  in  type  Egyptian. 

All  the  foregoing  features  of  the  scene,  however,  are  in- 
visible when  the  Masque  begins,  and  are  only  gradually  re- 
vealed by  mystic  lightings  during  the  early  course  of  the 

action. 

57 


THE  PRELUDE 

[Cahokia's  Dream] 

Out  of  complete  darkness  mysterious  music  rises, 
prelusive  to  the  appearance  of  a  visionary  scene  on  the 
plaza. 

There,  before  the  central  mound,  (as  the  music  con- 
tinues, descriptive)  Spirits  of  the  Mound-Builders  per- 
form the  ceremonies  of  a  prehistoric  ritual.* 

Dimly  seen,  in  the  darkness  of  the  vast  stage,  is  an 
ancient  temple  of  the  Maya  civilization  —  a  concrete 
expression  of  the  religion  of  the  great  race  of  red  men 
of  Yucatan  and  Central  America.  The  temple  is  to 
some  extent  a  replica  of  the  famous  Chichen  Itza, 
one  of  the  greatest  masterpieces  of  architecture  of  this 
wonderful  period  of  art  in  the  Western  World. 

Into  the  scene  comes  a  great  procession,  suggesting 
the  symbolism  and  imagery  of  the  race : 

Heroes  and  gods  —  priests  and  priestesses  (dancers) 
and  musicians  walk  solemnly  across  the  great  plaza  be- 
fore the  temple  —  a  brilliant  spectacle,  exotic  and 
unique,  flooded  in  the  warm  glow  of  sunset  light. 

While  priests  perform  a  ceremony  at  the  altar  in 
front  of  a  great  mound,  above  which  towers  the  shrine 
of  the  temple,  groups  of  men,  boys  and  girls  give  ex- 
pression in  dance  to  religious  inspiration  and  embodi- 
ment of  strength  and  grace;  and  when  the  climax  of 
the  dance  is  reached,  the  vision  fades  —  the  lights  grow 
dim,  night  steals  on,  and  only  the  glow  of  the  altar  fire 
remains. 


♦The  ritual  is  here  described  in  the  words  of  MR.  JOSEPH 
LINDON  SMITH,  whose  imaginative  artistry  has  devised  its  pan- 
tomime and  dance  in  the  Saint  Louis  production.

THE  MASQUE 
Part  I 

Now  in  total  darkness  the  mood  of  the  music,  chang- 
ing, sweeps  to  a  wild  burst  of  brass  and  wood-winds, 
mingled  with  rolling  thunder. 

Simultaneously,  as  from  mid-air,  appear  from  tops 
of  the  towers  two  vast  male  figures,  vaguely  illumined 
—  Hiloha  and  Noohai,  the  Elements  of  Heat  and  Cold. 

From  Noohai  —  sculptured  all  of  ice  —  gusts  of  snow 
and  sleet  fall,  flurrying.  The  other,  Hiloha,  carved  as 
from  flame,  is  swathed  in  cloud,  through  which  sharp 
lightnings  flicker. 

From  both  these  elemental  figures  bursts  a  great  cho- 
ral cry  —  each  answering  each  through  thunder  —  and 
the  voice  of  each  is  as  a  male  choir,  crying  "Cahokia!" 

At  their  cry,  a  shaft  of  lightning  reveals  Cahokia 
plucked  out  of  darkness  on  the  mound  below.  Risen 
from  behind  the  ritual  smoke,  he  appears  there  a  colos- 
sal masked  form,  garbed  like  an  Aztec  Indian  priest, 
seated  alone  before  the  temple-shrine. 

Below  him,  mysterious,  half-seen,  at  foot  of  the 
mound  —  crouched  on  its  farther  sides,  and  lurking  in 
the  dark  background  —  brute-headed  forms  of  the 
Wild  Nature  Forces  move  and  mingk^  with  glimmering 
limbs  of  savages. 

Cahokia  sits  with  lifted  face. 

Illumined  intermittently  by  storm-flashes,  he  raises 
his  arms  and  answers  the  cry  of  the  Elements.

visual  by  flitting  vistas  of  scenes,  illumined  momenta- 
rarily  on  the  night  background.] 

Ten  thousand  moons,  I  reigned.  Ten  thousand  moons 
My  vanished  people  piled  these  mounds 
'Mid  prayer  and  sacrifice  —  for  me, 
For  me,  their  father  and  their  sagamore. 
And  here  I  blessed  their  rites  with  social  arts 
And  solemn  festivals. 

Till  all  their  mounded  homes  were  hives  of  song- 
Stored  with  wild  honey  of  the  earth  and  stars.  — 
Ai-ya!    Where  hive  they  now?    On  golden  dawns 
Who  hears  their  seeding-song  and  harvest  hymn? 
Ai-ya !    Their  thousand  moons 
Are  ashes,  and  my  empire  is  a  dream.

Hearken,  Hilolia,  Noohai! 
You  now  who  mock  me 
You  have  destroyed  them, 
My  people !  —  Out  of  your  icy 
Caverns,  Noohai,  you  loosened 
The  billowing  herds  of  your  bison 
Over  my  cornlands,  and  wallowed 
My  beautiful  gardens.  —  lliloha. 
You,  then,  you  in  your  flame-cloud 
Rose  with  your  rivers,  and  flooded 
My  broken  hives  and  my  ruined 
Temples.    Ai-ya,  my  people ! 
Where  are  the  tribes  of  Cahokia? 
Lo,  where  the  trails  of  twilight 
Hide  them,  naked  and  scattered, 
Luring  them  backward  —  backward 
Deeper  in  primal  darkness, 
Masking  ^\ith  brutes,  and  mating 
In  lairs  of  the  jungle.    Lo,  now. 
They  have  forgotten  their  lordly 
Arts  and  the  songs  of  my  altar  — 
All  their  great  brotherhood.  Yea,  now, 
They  have  forgotten  Cahokia, 
Me  —  me,  their  father ! 
[Below  him,  from  the  dim,  crouching  forms,  breaks 
a  low  choral  cry,  mingled  with  wolf-barks,  whinnying 
noises  of  beasts,  and  the  far  war-yells  of  savages.]

From  ])elow,  the  dissoiiant  chorus  rises  hai-sher.]

Strike  me,  Hiloha  !    Freeze,  Noohai ! 

Still  I  defy  you ! 

For  still  I  dream  —  and  wait ; 

And  watchful  dreaming  overcomes  the  world. 

A  thousand  moons  —  they  are  a  thousand  sparks 

Blown  from  the  kindled  pipe  of  dreaming  Time. 

Around  his  brow  the  cloudy  incense  curls, 

The  clay  bowl  belches,  the  red  lavas  glow, 

And  ashes  darken  as  the  dreams  are  born  — 

The  dreams  are  born  and  rise  from  ruined  worlds. 

Ai-ya,  my  people  departed ! 
Ai-ya,  my  temples  forgotten! 
Yet  am  I  patient.  —

Still,  still  beyond  you 
Glitter  the  glorious  tribes  of  dreams

[While  he  has  spokeu,  the  fading  apparitions  of  the 
Elements  on  the  towers  have  vanished.  And  now,  grad- 
ually —  far  up  in  the  background  above  the  cyelopian 
wall  of  the  teraple-fagade  and  ranged  glittering  on  its 
ramparts  —  appear  the  Spirits  of  the  Stars,  gi'ouped 
in  their  constellations:  Orion,  the  Pleiades,  the  Scor- 
pion, etc.  Highest  over  all  —  a  vast,  silhouetted  bulk 
on  the  sky,  twinkling  with  the  seven  lights  of  the  "Dip- 
per"—  looms  Wasapedan,  the  Great  Bear. 

While  they  are  yet  dawning,  the  Stars  in  chorus 
break  into  song  —  like  the  far  carolling  of  choir-boys.]

CHORUS  OF  THE  STARS 
Wdsapeda  n !    Wdsapedo  )i ! 

Wake  from  your  lair! 
Watch  through  the  dark  your  wild  and  desert  places: 

Wonder  is  there.

Lo,  now,  they  rise  in  dreams  and  overwhelm  you, 

Hilolia,  Noohai ! 

Hark,  now,  I  hear  them  chanting-,  and  Wiisapedan, 

Eternal  watcher  of  the  lidless  eyes. 

Wakes  from  his  lair  of  stars. 

CHORUS  OF  THE  STARS 
Wdsapedan,  the  world  is  dim, 
The  way  to  beauty  is  far  —  is  far, 
And  man,  whose  soid  is  a  climhinp  star, 
Man  our  brother  —  0  comfort  him! 
We,  his  ivatchers,  ive  ivheel  in  choir 
Of  freedom  calm  and  harmonious, 
But  man,  who  reaches  and  cries  to  vs  — 
His  guide  is  tempest,  his  paths  are  mire. 
Sloivly  he  builds  his  golden  hives, 
But  the  wild  bees  swarm  to  the  winds  again; 
His  towers  they  crumble,  his  toil  is  vain; 
The  sowers  vanish,  the  seed  survives. 
Wdsapedan,  his  ways  are  dim, 
But  ours  are  shining,  ethereal: 
And  we,  who  hear  him,  his  darkling  call  — 
Our  star-born  brother!  —  will  comfort  him. 

CAH6KIA 
0  Voices  of  this  solemn  night,  my  soul ! 
O  singing  clans  of  darkness,  grouped  in  glory ! 
You  olden  bards 

Immortal  as  the  childhood  of  the  earth. 
You,  you,  my  elder  brothers,  ever  young! 
Sing  me  your  tidings ! 

And  you,  0  Wasapedan,  ancient  Bear, 

Who  by  the  Milky  Way 

Watch   with   your    sevenfold   eye    the    shimmering 

world  — 
Tell  me  what  you  behold  beneath  your  gaze, 
0  Wasapedan !

WASAPfiDAN 

[Ilis  voice  is  a  deep  male  voice,  echoed  by  choir-lx)y 
voices  in  antiphony.] 

Hope  I  behold,  Cahokia. 

CAIIoKlA 
What  is  the  hope  you  behold  there? 

WASAPfiDAN 
Life  and  new  labor. 

CAHOKIA 

Who  brings  me 
Life  out  of  death  ? 

WASAPfiDAN 

Mississippi. 

CAH6KIA 

How  shall  his  spirit  restore  me 
Seed  for  new  harvest? 

WASAPBDAN 

He  wanders 
To  ends  of  the  earth. 

CAHOKIA 

But  what  token 
Has  he  attained  there? 

WASAPfiDAN 

A  child. 

CAHOKIA 

Ha! 
Child  of  my  loins  —  of  my  red  race 
Shall  he  restore  me,  to  build  now 
Mounds  for  my  temples  once  more? 

WASAPfiDAN 

Nay! 
Child  of  a  new  race  he  brings  you  — 
Pale  as  a  star-child,  and  starry 
Glitters  the  sword  in  his  hand. 
64 


CAH6KIA 

Now 
Speak,  Wtisapedan !    What  means  his 
Sword  and  its  mission? 

WASAPfiDAN 

He  brings  it 
To  fight  for  the  rights  of  the  star-born  — 
Freedom  and  brotherhood. 

CAH6KIA 

So,  then. 
He  shall  inherit  my  battles 
Bolder  to  wage  them,  and  nobler 
Temples  to  build  on  my  mound-tops. 
0  Wfisapedan,  my  heart  beats 
Higher  to  welcome  him.   When,  ah. 
When  shall  I  greet  him  ? 

WASAPEDAN 

Behold  him! 
Lo,  where  the  Father  of  Waters 
Brings  now  the  white  child ! 
[From  the  sky  region  of  the  Bear,  a  shooting-star 
flies  trailing  across  the  dark  and  falls  beyond  the  bend 
of  the  waters  on  the  south.    Following  it  with  his  gaze, 
Cahokia  gives  a  long,  joyous  cry.] 

CAH6KIA 

El-a-ho ! 

[Round  the  far  bend  of  the  waters  appears  the  prow 
of  an  immense  canoe,  fantastic  with  totem  carvings  and 
ancient  Mayan  symbols.  In  the  painted  prow  stands 
Mississippi  —  a  masked  figure  of  great  stature,  murky 
yellow,  with  huge  flowing  beard  of  yellow,  and  body 
adorned  with,  river-reeds. 

The  canoe  is  manned  by  his  River  Spirits,  of  whom 
the  central  group  bear  upraised  on  their  heads  and 
bended  arms  a  litter  of  rushes. 

On  this  stands  a  little  child  —  a  strong-limbed  boy  — 
with  golden  hair.  Beside  him,  perpendicular,  shines  a 
collossal  sword. 

Mysterious,  the  barge  comes  gliding.  With  rhythmic 
splash  of  paddles,  the  River  Spirits  raise  now  singly, 
now  in  chorus,  their  chanting  song.  Before  them  and 
circling  them  round,  dark-stained  swimmers  plunge 
and  gleam  in  the  phosphorescent  waters. 

"Wasapedan  slowly  fades  from  the  sky.]

Far  in  the  sunset, 
Where  the  lone  sagamore 

Waits  in  the  west. 

Here  his  pale  cornlands 
Parch  for  thy  coming : 

Thou  shall  restore  them. 
Here  his  dim  forests 
Marshes  and  prayer-mounds 

Greet  thee  their  quest. 

Here  shall  the  earth  spirits, 
Iron-dumh  ages. 

Sing  as  they  serve  thee; 
Here,  the  wild  eagle 
Tamed  hy  thy  sky-sword 

Build  thee  his  nest.

[Disembarking  at  the  central  steps  of  stone.  Missis- 
sippi moves  toward  the  mound.  Behind  him  flows, 
from  his  shoulders,  an  enormous  undulating  sachem's 
cloak,  shimmering  with  pearly  shells,  and  upheld  by 
two  score  of  his  murky-limbed  followers.  Before  him. 
high  on  the  rush-litter,  is  borne  the  child.  Still  at  a  dis- 
tance. Mississippi  hails  the  giant  figure  on  the  mound  1

[Answering.] 
Yo,  Mississippi! 

MISSISSIPPI 
[Approaching,  pauses  with  his  followers.] 

I  who  of  old 

Bore  to  your  people 

Magical  life 

Out  of  my  mystery, 

I  and  my  swimming 

Sons  now  have  borne  you  — 

Out  of  the  mist  — 

Hither  tliis  star-child. 

CAHOKIA 
Dear  is  the  star-child  — 
Darling  as  April 
To  my  dark  winter. 

MISSISSIPPI 
[Pointing  toward  the  litter  before  him.] 
Here  for  his  hand 
I  bring  this  sword-blade: 
Forged  in  star-fire 
It  fell  in  thunder 
Flaming  to  his  feet. 
To-day  too  mighty 
For  him  to  heave  it, 
Yet  on  the  morrow 
It  shall  avail  him. 
So  spoke  the  star-voice. 

CAH6KIA 
Yea,  Wasapedan's  , 

Tongue  has  foretold 
How  he  shall  wield  it 
For  freedom  and  brotherhood. 

[Lifted  from  the  litter,  the  child  and  sword  are  borne 
ui)ward    on    shoulders   of    the    River    Spirits   to    the 
mound's  top.  and  placed  before  Cahokia  —  the  sword 
planted  upright  in  the  earth.] 
67 


.MISSISSIPPI 

Here  on  your  ancient 

Mound  —  here  I  leave  tlioni: 

Cherish  the  child; 

Guard  well  his  token. 
[Turning,  Mississippi  departs  with  the  Spirits,  and 
re-embarks.    Standing  once  more  in  his  prow,  he  calls 
back  toward  the  mound.  1 

;fileo,  Cahokia ! 

CAH6KIA 

[Answering.] 

Yo,  Mississippi ! 
[Moving  toward  the  north,  the  paddled  canoe  and  the 
swimmers  disappear  at  the  bend  of  waters,  chanting 
again  their  song : 

Awiva,  dtviva,  iveeiveethustin! 
Water-star,  water-star, 
Bright  is  thy  tvoncler! 
As  the  chant  dies  away,  Cahokia  gazes  at  the  child, 
who  stands  beneath  the  hilt  of  the  shining  sword.  While 
Cahokia  speaks,  the  child  approaches  him  and  nestles 
against  his  vast  knees.] 

CAHOKIA 

Rejoice,  0  heart  of  pain!    Be  glad! 

My  dream  is  a  strong  child.  —  Rejoice, 

Dear  starry  voices  of  my  soul ! 

My  dream  is  a  fair  child,  and  shall  go  forth 

Amid  the  strength  of  men,  to  vanquish  there 

The  dreamless  multitudes,  and  smite 

The  blind  with  vision.  —  Sing,  0  heart  of  peace ! 

For  all  that  through  unnumbered  ages  slept 

Dark  and  unused,  has  waked  in  him,  to  build 

New  mounds  of  wonder.  —  Old !  Old !  I  am  old ! 

But  he  is  young; 

Ah,  he  is  stripling,  bold  and  wildly  fair : 

My  dream  is  a  strong  child,  and  shall  restore  me ! 

[At  his  exultant  cry,  Ililoha  and  Noohai  —  on  their 
towers  —  flicker  palely  to  life  again ;  (juick  thunder 
rolls  menacingly;  the  Wild  Nature  Forces  crowd  for- 
ward out  of  the  dusk,  resuming  their  chorus.]

Old,  I  am  old,  and  cannot  war  to  save  thee ! 

[With  loud  veilings,  the  Wild  Nature  Forces  leap  up 
from  their  places  of  shadow,  and  from  behind  them, 
through  the  deep  entrances  at  back,  hundreds  more  of 
their  fierce  shapes  —  forms  masked  with  heads  of 
wolves,  bison,  bears,  and  horned  antelopes,  garbed  like 
aborigines  in  hides  of  beasts  —  rush  forward  tumultu- 
ous, in  live,  rhythmic  waves,  and  surround  the  mound. 
There,  mingled  with  feathered  Indians,  they  dance 
wildly  to  the  war-beat  of  tom-toms,  and  the  chant  of 
their  ululating  cries.]

child.] 

CAH6KIA 

Ai-ya,  my  star-child ! 
Wield  thy  great  sword  now 
And  save  thee. 
[Stepping    forward    beside    the    enormous    upright 
sword,  the  child  clutches  it  with  both  hands,  and  strug- 
gles to  raise  it. 

Slowly  he  does  so,  staggering  beneath  its  bulk. 
Pausing  in  their  dance,  the  beast  faces  stare  at  him, 
startled,  glowering,  murmurous. 

Returning  their  gaze  boldly,  the  child  stands  watch- 
ing with  arms  upraised.  Holding  above  him  the  glit- 
tering sword,  the  huge  blade  wavers  there  and  sways 
in  his  small  grasp. 

69 


So,  for  a  silent  instant,  he  faces  the  wild  hordes. 

Suddenly,  then,  from  the  south  bend  of  the  waters 
helow.  resounds  the  deep  boom  of  a  gun. 

The  wild  forms  turn  their  heads,  harking. 

It  booms  again. 

Tossing  their  horns,  with  sliarj)  ela'mor,  the  wild 
shapes  swarm  down  the  mound  sides,  and  pause  there. 

A  third  time  it  booms.  They  rush  into  the  darkness 
and  vanish. 

Above,  on  the  mound,  the  great  sword  falls  from  the 
hands  of  the  child.] 

CAH6KIA 
[Reaching  his  arms.] 
Wonder  and  awe  they  have  saved  thee ! 
Come  to  me,  star-child! 
[The  child  laughs  aloud  and  runs  to  him,  climbing  to 
his  knee.    There  he  stands  upright,  alert,  watching  the 
far  bend  of  the  waters. 

Behind  them  in  the  heavens,  the  Great  Bear  glows 
again  and  calls.] 

WASAPBDAN 

Cahokia ! 
[Hearing  the  starry  choir-voice,  the  child  starts  and 
looks  upward. 

Cahokia  points  with  his  hand. 
The  child  turns  and  gazes.] 

CAH6KIA 
Lo,  Wasapedan !  —  He  watches 
Once  more  the  w^aters.

Out  of  the  loins  of  Rome, 
Sired  by  olden  Apollo, 
Sprang  they: 

70 


Flaunting  their  lilies  and  lions, 
Speaking-  with  mouths  of  fire, 
Bearing  the  cross  of  the  Crucified, 
They  wander  the  world ! 

CAHOKIA 
Dark  are  your  words  to  me. 

WASAPfiDAN 

Bright  are  their  banners ! 
Behold  them! 

[Fading  swiftly,  Wiisapedau  disappears. 

Below  on  the  water  a  flush,  as  of  dawn,  spreads  rap- 
idly. 

Out  of  the  dawning  rises  the  chant  of  male  choirs, 
singing  the  "Veni  Creator."  The  sound  draws  nearer. 
Round  the  river  bend  now  enters  a  pageant  of  ships. 

First  and  unobtrusive  in  dusk  light,  while  Wjisa- 
pedan  is  still  speaking,  has  come  a  group  of  simple 
canoes  of  bark,  in  which  are  monks  and  priests  in  brown 
and  black,  bearing  wooden  crosses.  These  are  followed 
by  a  burst  of  ruddy  light,  through  which  emerge  the 
prows  and  decks  of  mediaeval  galleons. 

Bristling  with  spears  and  rich  standards,  mounted 
with  cannon,  flaunting  the  flags  and  insignia  of  France 
and  Spain,  the  ships  come  sailing  toward  the  steps  of 
landing.  Their  rowlocks  are  manned  with  mediaeval 
sailors,  their  decks  crowded  with  men  and  women  of 
the  Latin  nations,  brilliantly  clothed. 

In  the  central  ship  of  all,  rounding  from  the  middle 
above  the  highest  deck,  rises  a  glowing  sphere.  On  this 
is  a  group  of  three  male  figures,  masked. 

Highest  sits  one  in  black,  cowled  and  robed.  His  face 
looks  upward,  he  holds  a  cross  of  gold.  Lower  on  either 
side  two  others  sit,  gazing  far  off.  One  is  garbed  as  a 
Knight  in  semi-armor;  his  aspect  is  Spanish ;  he  holds 
a  cup  in  his  hand;  beside  him  is  a  standard  with  lions. 
The  other  is  garbed  as  a  Trapper,  a  woodsman  with 
head  plumed;  his  aspect  is  French;  in  one  hand  he 
holds  a  trap ;  beside  him  is  a  banner  with  lilies. 

In  the  wake  of  the  decked  ships  follows  a  group  of 
barges,  splondid  with  banners  of  the  church,  shining 
with  silver  crosses,  searh^t  and  gold  with  ecclesiastics 
and  choirs.  From  these  choir-barges  rises  the  solenm 
song  of  "Veni  Creator  Spiritus." 

On  shore,  following  the  course  of  tlu'  river,  a  medi- 
71 


ftival  laiul  i)rocession  meets  llic  niiwanl-inoviiig  water 
pageant  at  the  eentral  landing. 

Disembarking  there  in  many  lined  lights  as  of  sun- 
rise, the  medieval  groups  and  processions  of  Church 
and  Nations  mount  the  now  brightening  spaces  of  the 
wide  plaza,  and,  spreading,  range  tliemselves  rank 
upon  rank,  coloring  the  fore  and  middle  ground  with 
stately  groupings,  which  leave  a  broad  central  aisle 
leading  to  the  steps  of  the  mound. 

Up  this  aisle-space  from  the  shore  moves  a  dreamy 
float,  previously  disembarked  from  the  deck  of  the 
central  ship. 

The  float  consists  of  the  glowing  sphere,  darkened  by 
the  masked  figures  of  the  Discoverers.  Drawn  by  Elves 
and  Will-o'-the-wisps,  and  followed  by  groups  of  Dry- 
ads and  Fauns,  it  moves  to  the  foot  of  the  mound  and 
pauses  there. 

Cahokia  addresses  the  figures.  The  child  climbs 
down  between  his  feet  and  stands  listening.] 

CAH6KIA 

What  hereos  are  yon,  who  have  come 
Over  the  waters, 

With  chanting  strange  to  my  ears  ? 
Yon  of  the  lions,  what  are  you? 
Why  have  you  come  ? 

[As  Cahokia  speaks,  the  glowing  sphere  turns  dark, 
and  one  of  the  seated  figures  —  the  Knight  with  the 
standard  of  lions  —  flames  with  sudden  radiance,  and 
a  trumpet  sounds  as  he  answers:] 

THE  ONE  WITH  THE  LIONS 

Imaginers  of  the  old  world 

We  come  to  discover : 

NcAv  fountains  of  life  are  our  quest. 

This  cup  in  my  hand  I  have  borne 

To  fill  from  your  deserts,  but  there 

The  \vill-o'-the-wisps  and  the  elves 

They  lured  me  to  drought. 

Yet  here  to  your  ancient  mound 

They  have  drawn  me  now,  to  do  homage 

Here  to  the  white  child. 

[As  he  concludes,  a  group  of  the  Elves  carrying  long 
cat-tails  dart  up  the  stops  of  the  mound  to  the  level 
72 


space.  There,  as  the  child,  curious,  steps  forward,  they 
encircle  him,  dancing,  waving  their  spear-topped 
rushes. 

Below,  on  the  plaza  level,  before  the  float,  the  other 
Elves  and  Will-o'-the-wisps  dance  in  mysterious  rings, 
flickering  their  swamp-lights.  Dancing  thus  for  a 
moment,  they  suddenly  cease  at  the  sound  of  a  horn. 
Those  on  the  mound  fling  high  their  cat-tail  spears  and 
scurry  downward  back  to  the  lower  level,  behind  the 
float  and  the  mound.  There  the  figure  of  the  Knight 
has  grown  dark. 

The  child,  seizing  one  of  the  rush  spears  and  flinging 
it  high,  laughs  up  at  Cahokia.  who  speaks  again.  As 
he  speaks,  the  second  Figure  on  the  sphere  —  the  Trap- 
per—  glows  with  flame  light.] 

CAHOKIA 

And  you  of  the  lilies,  w^hose  call 
Is  a  winding  horn,  w^hat  brings 
Yon  from  the  sunrise? 
[Again  the  mellow  horn  sounds  and  the  Figure  an- 
swers. ] 

THE  ONE  WITH  THE  LILIES. 

The  hire  of  the  sunset  —  the  gold 
Of  hazard,  the  joy  of  adventure : 
I  came  to  discover 
Furs  in  your  forest,  but  there 
Dryads  and  fauns  of  my  dreams 
They  followed  to  snare  me  bewildered 
And  trapped  me,  the  trapper. 
Yea,  here  to  your  ancient  mound 
They  follow^  me  now,  to  do  homage 
Here  to  the  wdiite  child. 
[As   he   stops  speaking,  a  group  of  little  Fauns  — 
garbed  as  squirrels  and  lynxes  —  spring  up  the  steps 
of  the  mound  and  gambol  before  the  child,  flaunting 
their  purple  fleur-de-lis  in  their  dance. 

Below,  meanwhile,  on  the  plaza-space,  wild  troops  of 
Dryads  — with  chaplets  and  zones  of  blue  lilies  — 
dance  before  the  sphere. 

The  stroke  of  a  big  bell  brings  the  dance  to  pause. 
On  the  mound  the  Fauns  shower  the  child  with  fleur- 
de-lis  and  then  scatter  downward,  all  retiring  as  before 
behind  the  mound. 

73 


On  the  darkened  sphere  now  the  Fi^ires  again  are 
dark.  Cahukia  speaks  and  while  he  does  so,  the  cen- 
tral e^nvk'd  Figure  in  black  —  the  One  with  the  Cross 
—  glows  upward  as  with  purple  fire.] 

rAII6KTA 
I^ut  you,  in  the  gown  of  night, 
Wlioso  call  is  a  golden  bell, 
What  fiery  sign  do  you  bring 
Yonder?  —  Why  come  you? 
[Again  the  deep  bell  sounds,  as  the  Figure  answers:] 

THE  ONE  WITH  THE  CROSS 
T  come  to  discover  —  and  heal. 
I  bring  the  Cross 
To  feed  new  tribes  with  its  fire ; 
For  the  fire  I  bring  burns  not 
But  heals  the  burning; 
And  the  rod  I  bring  is  a  Shepherd's, 
And  the  lilies  He  sends  are  white. 
And  His  lilies  I  bring  now,  to  christen 
Yonder  the  white  child. 
[As  he  concludes,  choir-boys  in  vestments  of  white, 
led  bj'  priests  in  black,  mount  the  steps  of  the  mound, 
bearing  white  lilies  and  chanting  low  the  "Yeni  Cre- 
ator. ' ' 

Surrounding  the  child  with  their  lilies,  they  raise  the 
fallen  sword  and  plant  it  again  upright  in  the  earth. 
Beside  it  the  child  kneels  down. 
Once  more  the  solemn  bell  sounds  as  the  One  with 
the  Cross  speaks  in  a  deep  voice:] 

Xow  in  the  name  of  the  Christ, 
Brother  and  lover  of  man. 
Rise  and  receive  thy  name : 
Rise  —  Saint  Louis ! 
[The  child  rises  and  touches  the  sword  with  his  hand. 
As  he  does  so.  a  burst  of  bells  peals  forth,  resounding 
their  chimes  far  across  the  water ;  the  throngs  of  the 
Latin  Nations  raise  their  standards,  the  priests  their 
banners,  and   thousands  of  voices  shout  with  a  vast 
shout : 

SAINT  LOUIS! 

Simultaneously  above  the  shrine,   the  semi-circular 
sj'mbol  of  the  ancient  ritual  crumbles  and  disappears, 
and  supplanting  it  —  out  of  the  air  —  appears  a  colos- 
sal cross  burning  with  white  fire. 
74 


With  the  echoing  cry  ol"  "Saint  Louis,"*  all  the  par- 
ticipants in  the  scene,  raising  a  hymn  in  chorus,  begin 
now  a  stately  moving  pageant,  marching'  by  groups  and 
blending  toward  the  huge  exits  in  the  background. 
There,  as  they  disappear,  the  hymn  dies  in  the  dis- 
tance.] 

THE  HYMN 

[Chanted  by  all  in  chorus.] 

Veni,  creator  Spiritus, 
mentes  tuorum  visita, 
imple  superna  gratia 
qu(B  tu  creasti  pectora: 

qui  ParacJitus  diceris, 
clonum  Dei  altissimi, 
fons  vivus,  ignis,  caritas, 
et  spirit alis  unctio. 

tu  septiformis  munere, 
dextrce  Dei  tu  digitus, 
tu  rite  promisso  Patris 
sermone  ditas  guttura. 

accende  lumen  sensibus, 
infunde  amorem  corihus, 
infirma  nostri  corporis 
virtute  firmans  perpeti. 

hostem  repellas  longius, 
pacemque  dones  protinus; 
ductore  sic  te  prcevio 
vitemus  omne  noxium. 

per  te  sciamus  da  Pair  em, 
noscamus  atque  F ilium, 
te  utriusque  Spiritum 
credamus  omni  tempore. 

sit  laus  Patri  cum  Filio, 
sancto  simul  Paraclito, 
nohisque  mittat  Filius 
charisjua  sancti  Spiritus. 
Amen. 


•For  purposes  of  this  Masque,  the  name  Saint  Louis  Is  Pi^nounced  w  tho  t 
soundlnir  the  final  "s"  (1.  e.  Saint  Loo-ey),  not  simply  because  'his  Pronunciation 
-still  retained  bv  the  city's  older  families  —  Is.  nearer  to  the  French  orlBlnal, 
but  because  It  ha«  a  clearer  and  more  sonorous  .luality  for  being  spoken,  shouted 
or  chanted,  out  of  doors  on  the  Immense  staKc  at  Forest  1  ark. 

75 


[The  full  radiiiiioc  wliicli  illuiniiicd  llie  forcf^roiiud 
has  fjrown  dim  with  the  (h'partiufj:  paj^cant,  and  now, 
to  the  far  echoes,  only  Caiiukia  and  the  Child  [still 
backed  by  the  group  of  choir-boys]  remain  on  the  twilit 
mound. 

Hefore  them,  the  cross-hilt  of  the  upright  sword 
stands  gleaming;  behind  and  above,  the  vaster  Cross 
glows  solemnly.  Beyond  it,  from  the  sky,  Wtisapedan 
dawns  again. 

Cahokia  reaches  his  arms  toward  the  Child,  and 
speaks  in  deep  tones.] 

CAHCKIA 

Child  of  my  ancient  dream 
Born  from  deep  waters, 
Hearlien  the  olden  voice 
That  spoke  to  me  as  a  child, 

0  little  Saint  Louis. 

SAINT  LOUIS 

[Gazing  upward.] 

1  hearken,  Cahokia ! 

CAHOKIA 

[Calling  aloud.] 

Wasapedan !    Wasapedan !    Reveal  — 
Reveal  now  his  mission ! 

WASAPfiDAN 

Hearken  the  law  of  the  stars :  — 
Out  of  the  formless  void 
Beauty  and  order  are  born. 
One  for  the  all,  all  in  one, 
We  wheel  in  the  joy  of  our  dance. 
Brother  with  brother 
Sharing  our  light, 
Build  we  new  worlds 
With  ancient  fire. 
Only  together 
Lovers  are  free : 
Love  is  our  labor. 
So  labor  is  joy. 
[Wasapedan  fades  and  vanishes.] 
76 


CAHOKIA 
Child,  dost  thou  hearken? 

SAINT  LOUIS 

I  hark! 
T  bark  —  and  will  remember! 

CAHOKIA 

Feel,  then,  that  voice  as  a  flame 
To  kindle  the  blade  of  thy  sword. 
Fight  with  the  formless  void 
For  beauty  and  order  to  triumph. 
Bear  now  Saint  Louis  his  sword 
Before  him  into  my  temple  — 
Mine  now  no  more! 
Gods  and  their  sybils  depart  : 
God  is  eternal. 

[Uplifting  the  great  sword,  the  choir-boys  bear  it 
horizontally  before  Saint  Louis  up  the  steps  into  the 
temple  shrine.  In  the  doorway  the  Child  turns  and 
stretches  forth  his  arms  to  Cahokia,  who  calls:] 

Farewell,   Saint  Louis !  —  Eemember ! 

SAINT  LOUIS 
I  will  remember,  Cahokia ! 

[Bending  his  arm  to  his  face,  he  goes  into  the  tem- 
ple. 

For  an  instant,  on  the  tops  of  the  towers,  the  vague 
forms  of  the  Elements  flicker  ruddily. 

Low  thunder  murmurs. 

Cahokia  upraises  both  arms.  Before  him  a  mist  be- 
gins to  rise.    He  calls  in  the  pausing  thunder:] 

CAH6KIA 

Ai-ya,  Hiloha,  Noohai! 
You,  too,  I  leave  now. 
No  more  shall  Cahokia  dwell 
L^pon  the  earth. 

His  memory  shall  be  as  flintshard. 
His  name  —  a  mound. 
77 


For  now  will  T  sleep  with  my  people. — 
()  glad  1  lie  down  with  my  people 
To  slumber  there; 
For  I  am  old,  old  —  forij:otteii ; 
But  not  my  Dream  : 

My  Dream  is  a  strong  child,  and  shall  sur- 
vive me ! 

[The  upcreepiiig  mists  cover  now  in  clouds  all  hut 
his  lifted  face.] 

Dawn  —  dawn,  you  holy  stars ! 
Hail,  Wasapedau ! 

[Swathed  now  in  the  risen  mists,  his  giant  form  is 
wholly  hidden. 

A  gust  of  wind  l)lows  the  mists,  dispersing  them. 
Nothing  is  there. 

Above  the  temple,  the  faint  cross  pales  and  vanishes. 
All  now  is  silence  —  and  the  dark.] 


INTERLUDE. 


Out  of  the  dark  —  mello\v.  shrilly-sweet,  far  — 
sounds  now  the  chorus  of  Stars. 

These,  as  they  dawn  in  the  background,  cluster  the 
sky-plane  with  their  constellations. 

Meanwhile,  as  their  voices  hold  the  listening  ear,  a 
dreamy  pageant,  far  up,  lures  the  eye  of  the  beholder. 

From  behind  the  shadowy  height  of  the  temple 
wings,  a  moving  frieze  of  figures  appears,  ascending 
through  solemn  lights,  and  passes  along  the  top  from 
either  wing  to  the  centre  of  the  main  facade  —  a  frieze 
symbolic  of  the  passing  years,  the  falling,  faltering, 
onward-groping  souls  of  human  generations  as  they 
vaguely  aspire  from  the  dusk. 

Among  the  contrasted  groupings  of  Day  and  Night, 
Faith  and  Doubt,  Maid  and  Mother  and  labor-bowed 
Man,  moves  the  Life  Spirit  —  a  flame-colored  Figure 
with  wings,  beckoning  them  onward,  and  followed  ar- 
dently by  groups  of  children  and  strong  youths. 
78 


CHORUS  OF  THE  STARS 

What  of  the  years  —  tJie  years  — 

As  they  yearn  on  earth? 
Day  and  dark  are  their  yliding  tears, 
And  the  heart  of  man  is  their  urn, 
And  maiden  brings  flame  and  mother  gives  birth 

As  they  yearn. 

What  of  the  souls  —  the  souls 

As  they  climb  toward  God? 
Doubt  and  faith  are  their  darkling  goals. 
And  they  soar,  or  sink  in  the  slime. 
And  demon  clambers  where  angel  trod, 

As  they  climb. 

Lonely  they  wander,  apart 

From  the  joy  they  cherish: 
Lonely  of  heart 

They  perish. 

Only  to  rise  again 

At  the  fall  of  an  angel's  feather, 
Out  of  their  separate  pain 

Climbing  together. 

Lord  of  the  years  —  the  years 

As  they  yearn  from  earth, 
Life  goes  forth  with  his  pioneers. 
And  the  planets  shake  as  he  sings. 
And  out  of  the  slime  he  laughs  in  the  mirtJi 

Of  his  wings. 

[Attaining  the  centre  of  the  faoade  of  the  wall,  the 
flame-colored  Figure  looses  there  a  live  bird.  Instantly 
around  it,  from  the  air.  hundreds  of  other  living  wings 
burst  into  light,  —  white  doves  that  hover  upward 
swaying,  and  beat  against  the  dark  in  circling  splendor. 

So,  like  a  mirage,  the  pageant  vanishes.] 


THE  MASQUE 
Part  II 

Below  now  —  in  the  foreground  plane  —  the  mound 
and  temple  again  become  visible. 

"Within  the  temple  shrine  slowly  a  ruddy  glow  ap- 
pears and  increases. 

From  the  background,  low  rumbling  begins,  as  of 
drums;  from  far  off  come  male  voices  singing  in 
chorus  —  a  trampling  music,  which  deepens  and  in- 
creases. 

THE  CHORUS 

Where  shall  ive  camp  —  cainp  —  camp 
When  the  blinding  day  is  over? 
On  the  coyote's  track, 
Where  the  ford  runs  black, 
And  the  ivood-cat  cries 
When  the  wolf  creeps  back, 
And  our  stallions  stamp  —  stamp. 

With  the  hungering  ivind  for  stover. 

[The  marching  of  many  people  now  is  heard  through 

the  great  entrances  in  the  background,  and  there  the 

Pioneers  begin  to  pour  through  in  thronging  groups. 

Around  them  the  chorus  of  unseen  singers  grows 

loud  and  resounding.] 

CHORUS  OF  PIONEERS 
What  ivere  we  told  —  told  —  told 
By  our  smouldering  fires  in  story? 
Hoiu  the  rivers  run 
To  the  sunken  sun 
Over  blood-bright  sand. 
And  every  one 
Is  bloody  with  gold  —  gold. 

And  their  torrents  are  red  ivith  its  glory. 
80 


[Garbed  like  miners  and  rangers,  carrying  axes, 
picks,  scythes,  rifles,  etc.,  the  Pioneers  move  forward, 
marching  in  widespread  numbers,  to  the  right  and 
front  of  the  mound. 

In  their  midst  rides  a  tall  Figure  (the  Pioneer), 
erarbed  like  the  others,  but  masked  in  a  sculptured  face 
of  rugged  feature.  Mounting  the  lesser  mound  on  the 
right,  he  pauses  there,  grouped  about  by  his  foot  fol- 
lowers. 

Meanwhile  the  chorus  becomes,  for  the  filling  plaza 
spaces,  a  reverberating  background  of  song.] 

CHORUS  OF  PIONEERS 
Whom  shall  we  call  —  call  —  call 
In  our  hunger  of  life  to  feed  us? 
On  the  heart  that's  young 
With  a  song  unsung, 
And  the  hand  that  reaps 
Where  the  grain  is  flung, 
And  the  forests  fall  —  fall: 

In  the  lust  of  our  youth  he  shall  lead  us! 

[Seated  upon  his  horse  upon  the  lesser  mound,  the 
Pioneer  lifts  one  arm  and  fires  in  the  air  a  pistol  shot, 
calling  aloud  :J 

THE  PIONEER 
Saint  Louis  1 

ALL  THE  OTHERS 
[Raising  their  axes  and  weapons,  with  a  great  shout.] 
Saint  Louis !   Saint  Louis ! 

[From  within  the  mound-shrine  the  glow  has  in- 
creased to  a  brilliant  radiance,  through  which  now 
comes  forth  the  shining  figure  of  a  Youth,  clothed  in 
the  silvery  chain-armor  of  a  crusader,  with  mantle  of 
white.    In  his  fillet  burns  a  white  star. 

Pausing  at  the  top  of  the  temple  steps,  he  holds  be- 
fore him  the  glowing  sword.] 

THE  YOUTH

Blaze  with  desire  and  danger  and  hoi)e 

Born  of  to-day.    For  to-morrow  is  dim, 

Yesterday  —  dead.    But  to-day,  here  are  fields 

Waiting  to  sow;  here  are  forests  to  fell,

SAINT    LOUIS 

See  —  this  sword ! 
Here  on  this  mound  I  received  it  —  a  child. 
Handed  me  down  from  the  night  and  the  stars. 
Lo,  on  my  brow  that  remembrance  still  burns! 
Now  for  our  day  this  shall  be  as  an  axe. 
Yea,  as  a  scythe,  as  a  spade,  and  a  lance. 
Sharpened  to  serve  and  to  lead  you  in  light. 

82 


THE  PIONEER 
Hail  to  the  sword ! 

THE  OTHERS 
Hail  the  sword ! 

SAINT   LOUIS  0  my  friends, 

Comrades  in  hope  and  desire!  Our  dreams  — 
All  the  youus:  lusts  of  our  hearts  —  shall  be  ours, 
Won  bv  this  sword,  and  the  strength  of  your  hands! 
Not  —  not  alone  will  I  wield  it :  but  you  — 
All  of  you  —  with  me !    What  now  can  withstand  — 
"Who  shall  defy  us? 

[To  the  glad  ringing  of  his  voice,  suddenly  a  huge 
rumbling  answers;  an  earthquake  shock  totters  the 
temple  shrine ;  Saint  Louis  staggers,  the  sword  is  flung 
from  his  hands,  the  thronging  Pioneers  sway,  grasp 
the  air  startled,  or  fall  to  the  ground,  as  the  earth  at 
the  foot  of  the  mound  opens  with  ruddy  hght.  and  a 
tall  athlete  form,  all  golden,  emerges  like  a  spirit,  and 
stands  below  Saint  Louis,  uplifting  his  menacing 
sceptre.] 

THE  SPIRIT 

I  —  I  and  my  serfs. 
We,  the  Earth  Spirits,  defy  you ! 

THE  PIONEERS  ANT)  ADVENTURERS 

[Staring  and  pointing.] 

Gold!  Gold! 

SAINT  LOUIS 
[Starting  up  and  grasping  his  sword.] 
Spirit,  what  are  you  f    Speak ! 

THE  SPIRIT 

Gold!—  I  am  Gold: 
I  am  the  element,  earthborn  to  be 
Master  and  maker  of  men.    To  my  wand 
All  the  earth  elements  rise  from  their  mire 
Minions  of  me  —  me,  their  spokesman  and  lord. 
Lo,  now,  behold  where  they  rise ! 
[Lifting  his  wand,  he  calls]  : 

Ho!  — Ee-yol 

83 


Copper  and  Silver!  —  Yo,  Iron  and  Glass! 
Lead  and  Aliiuiinum  1  —  Ho,  from  your  loins 
Brass  and  brii^ht  Steol,  and  more  of  your  mating! 
Yo,  now  —  all  molten  —  arise,  and  among  you 
Forest,  and  Fur  of  the  forest  —  upstand  I 
Rise  to  my  power  and  grapple  with  man ! 

[To  his  call  and  lifted  sceptre,  the  ground,  opening 
now  in  various  places,  l)elciies  forth  green,  blue,  yellow, 
and  silver  fire,  through  which  pour  upward  the  Earth 
Spirits.  Large  athlete  forms,  laden  with  gleaming 
chains,  they  group  themselves  about  the  central  masked 
figures  of  the  several  Elements. 

Among  them,  through  shadowy  twilight,  rise  Forest 
and  Fur  and  their  sylvan  followers. 

\yhile  their  shapes  are  thus  appearing,  the  chorus  of 
their  subterranean  voices  rises  with  them.] 

CHORUS  OF  THE  EARTH  SPIRITS 
Out  of  the  ivomb  of  earth 

Old,  old 
We  come  to  birth: 
Chained  to  the  sward 
We  serve  thee,  our  lord 

Gold! 
Czars  of  all  weaker, 
The  soul  of  our  seeker 

We  slay: 
Slaves  of  the  vaster 
Soul  who  can  master  — 

Him  we  obey. 
Who  is  more  lordly  than  Gold"?  — 
Let  him  be  bold! 

Only  our  lord  we  obey. 

GOLD 
Welcome,  my  earth-people ! 

THE  EARTH  SPIRITS 

Ee-yo!  Ee-yo! 

THE  PIONEER 

Look  where  they  stand  and  defy  us !  Saint  Louis, 
Lead  us,  Saint  Louis ! 

84 


THE  PIONEERS 
Lead  us,  Saint  Louis ! 

GOLD 

[Tauntingly.] 

Saint  Louis!  — A  bout! 
So  I  make  challenge ! 

[He  hurls  his  wand  of  gold  at  Saint  Louis'  feet. 
Saint  Louis  seizes  it  up,  and  lifts  it  high.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 

So,  Gold,  I  accept! 
Beautiful,  strong  are  your  Earth  Spirits  —  j^ours 
Henceforth  no  more,  but  mine,  mine!     From  3'our 

power 
Now  I  will  free  them :    Their  chains  shall  be  loosed ; 
Girders  and  intricate  wheels  shall  they  forge 
Henceforth  to  serve  me  and  Him  whom  I  serve. 
Wings  for  their  glorious  bodies,  yea  wings 
Shall  raise  them  to  strive  for  my  race  of  the  stars. 
Stand  forth,  my  comrades  —  you,  Pioneers ! 
One  I  will  choose  now  to  wrestle  with  Gold. 
Choose  you  the  others,  to  grapple  with  yonder 
Earth  Spirits. 

[From  the  Pioneers  a  band  of  athlete  wrestlers,  fling- 
ing off  their  cloaks,  step  forward  with  a  shout.] 

THE  WRESTLERS 
Hail!  —  Hail,  Saint  Louis! 

[At  a  sign  from  Gold  a  band  of  Earth  Spirits  stride 
forward  from  the  other  side,  calling  aloud  :] 

THE  EARTH  SPIRITS 

Hail,  Gold ! 

SAINT  LOUIS 
[Pointing  his  word  toward  the  tallest  of  the  wrest- 
lers.] 
Him  now  I  choose,  to  meet  Gold. 

[From  the  sword's  blade  a  flying  globe  of  fire  falls 
at  the  feet  of  the  wrestler.] 

Come  before  me ! 
85 


GOLD 
Now    meet    witli    your    match,    rioiieer!  —  To    the 
moimd ! 

[SpringiiifjT  forward,  tlie  Wrestler  mounts  tlie  mound 
stops,  together  with  Gold,  and  stands  on  the  level  space 
below  Saint  Louis.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 
Now  in  mv  name,  Pioneer,  wrestle  well!  — 
Ready! 

THE  WRESTLERS  AND  EARTH  SPIRITS 

[Below.] 
Ho,  ready! 

[Above  on  the  mound,  the  chosen  Wrestler  and  Gold, 
stripped  to  grapple,  confront  each  other. 

Below,  on  the  cleared  central  space  of  the  plaza,  the 
athlete  Pioneers  and  Earth  Spirits  —  a  band  of  some 
hundred  or  more,  opposed  in  couples  —  stand  with 
arms  reached,  awaiting  the  signal.  The  bodies  of  the 
Earth  Spirits  are  still  bound  by  their  metal  chains. 

On  the  highest  step  before  the  temple's  entrance, 
Saint  Louis  raises  his  sword  perpendicularly  and  cries 
aloud  :] 

SAINT  LOUIS 
Now! 

[Swiftly  bringing  down  the  sword  he  strikes  it  clang- 
ing on  the  stone. 

Above  and  below,  on  the  two  levels,  the  ^vrestle^s 
grapple  —  the  lower  level  lying  in  half  shadow. 

Clutching,  swaying,  sliding  in  lights  and  glooms,  the 
wonderful  bodies  strain  for  victory'. 

Massed  on  either  side,  the  crowded  Pioneers  and 
Earth  Spirits  Avateh  and  murmur. 

Suddenly  Saint  Louis  lets  fall  his  sword,  and  grasps 
toward   his  fillet. 

Gold  has  downed  the  Pioneer,  and  a  vast  exulting 
shout  rises  from  the  watching  Earth  Spirits.] 

THE  EARTH  SPIRITS 
Gold!    Gold! 

SAINT  LOUIS 
[Calls  above  them.]  ..        ,  , 

Stay!  One  down! 

[Below,  on  the  plaza  level,  the  Wrestlers  pause  mom- 
entarily. Saint  Louis  strides  down  the  steps  toward 
Gold  and  the  Pioneei-  Wrestler,  reaching  his  hand  to- 
ward the  latter.] 

86 


Take  the  star  I 


GOLD 
Ho,  I  win  I 


SAINT  LOUIS 

Two  in  three ! 
[To  the  Wrestler.] 
Rise,  Pioneer,  and  wear  now  this  star ! 

[Phickiug  the  star  from  his  fillet,  Saiut  Louis  hands 
it.  glowing,  to  the  Wrestler,  who  places  it  on  his  own 
forehead,  where  it  shines.] 
None  can  down  Gold  who  fights  for  himself. 
Fight  for  our  star !    Wrestle  well ! 

[Ascending  again,  Saint  Louis  lifts  his  sword  per- 
pendicularly for  the  sign.] 

Ready!  — Now! 

[Again  the  sword  clangs. 
Again  the  wrestling  proceeds  on  both  levels. 
Now  Saint  Louis  raises  his  sword  horizontally,  and  a 
great  joyous  cry  breaks  from  the  watching  Pioneers. 
The  Wrestler  has  downed  Gold.] 

THE  PIONEERS 
Louis !    Saint  Louis !    The  Star ! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Still  once  more ! 
Hold  I  —  The  third  bout :  —  Ready !  —  Now ! 
[Again  the  sword  clangs. 
The  wrestlers  clutch. 

On  the  shadowy  lower  level,  the  silent  grapphng 
grows  more  keen,  and  many  are  downed  on  both  sides. 
But  the  eyes  of  the  watchers  are  riveted  on  the  illum- 
ined mound. 

There  now  Saint  Louis'  sword  swings  outward  again 
horizontally. 

Gold  is  downed  again,  and  the  watching  Pioneers 
shout  more  wildly.] 

THE  PIONEERS 
Louis !    Saint  Louis !    The  Star ! 

[The  clamor  grows  tumultuous  and.  swelling  above 
the  shouts,  the  song  of  the  deep  chorus  reverberates 
once  more.] 

87 


[CHORUS] 

Wlio)})  sJiall  ive  call  —  call  —  call 
In  our  hunger  of  life  to  feed  us? 
On  the  heart  that's  young 
With  a  song  unsung, 
And  the  hand  tJiat  reaps 
Where  the  grain  is  flung, 
And  the  forests  fall  —  fall: 

hi  the  lust  of  our  youth  he  shall  lead  us! 

[SHOUTS] 
Louis !    Saint  Louis !    The  Star ! 

[In  the  foreground,  the  Wrestling  Pioneers  have  led 
to  the  foot  of  the  mound  the  conquered  Earth  Spirits, 
who  kneel  there  below  Saint  Louis  —  each  beside  his 
opponent  who  stands. 

Great  green  and  gray  banners  of  Forest  and  Fur 
are  held  by  the  other  Pioneers,  at  left  and  right. 

Saint  Louis,  receiving  back  the  star  from  the  Wrest- 
ler, speaks  from  above  to  those  below.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Comrades,  the  star  —  our  star  is  victorious! 
Rise  now,  my  Earth  Spirits !  —  You,  Pioneers, 
Strike  off  their  chains  now :  wings  shall  be  theirs  — 
Wings !  —  for  to-morrow  they  fly  in  my  service. 

[The  Earth  Spirits  rise,  and  their  chains  are  struck 
off  by  their  conquerers. 

Meanwhile  Gold,  who  has  lain  crouched  beneath  the 
winning  Wrestler,  leaps  to  his  feet  with  a  defiant  ges- 
ture, and  cries  to  Saint  Louis:] 

GOLD 

Strike  off  their  chains,  0  Saint  Louis !  yet  I  — 
1  will  forge  new  ones  to  fetter  their  wings ! 
Gold  is  not  downed  by  one  wrestling.    Farewell ! 
Fare  worse,  for  again  I  will  meet  and  defy  you ! 

[Seizing  up  his  fallen  sceptre.  Gold  springs  to  the 
back  edge  of  the  mound  and  stands  there  for  an  in- 
stant.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Welcome  the  grappling,  wdienever  \ve  meet ! 
Hail,  Gold  I 


GOLD 

[Raising  bis  sceptre,  threateningly.] 
Long  hail  —  and  defiance! 
[With  a  last  fierce  gesture.  Gold  plunges  like  a  diver 
into  the  darkness  behind  the  mound.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 

[Pointing  to  the  Earth  Spirits,  speaks  to  those  who 
stand  guard  over  them.] 

Release  them! 

[To  mysterious  blowing  of  unseen  trumpets,  the 
Earth  Spirits  pass,  with  their  loosened  chains,  behind 
the  great  banners  and  emerge  on  the  other  side,  clothed 
in  fiery  wings  of  many  colors,  like  the  hues  of  their 
own  metallic  bodies. 

Saint  Louis  speaks  to  all  assembled.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Now  freedom  and  strong  brotherhood  prevail 
Amongst  us,  and  the  soul  of  these  be  blown 
World-far  —  America ! 

[Like  an  echo,  magnified  by  a  multitude  of  voices 
far  away,  a  choral  answer  comes  murmuring: 
' '  America ! ' ' 

Saint  Louis  starts  and  listens. 

Then  a  deep  Voice  —  circled  as  with  boy  choirs  — 
resounds  from  the  sky,  but  no  visual  sign  appears 
there.] 

THE  VOICE 

Saint  Louis ! 


SAINT  LOUIS 


Plark! 


What  voice! 


THE  VOICE 
Saint  Louis ! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Wf'i s a ped a n ' s  voice! 
He  calls,  even  as  of  old. 

THE  VOICE 
They  come. 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Who  come. 


0  darkling  voice? 


89 


THE  VOICE 

The  World  Adventurers. 

[From  the  right  background,  there  enters  now  a 
multitude  of  men  and  women,  garbed  in  the  native 
costumes  of  all  nations. 

Preeminent  among  them,  on  horseback,  ride  five 
masked  figures,  symbolic  of  Europe,  Africa,  Asia,  Aus- 
tralia and  the  Ocean  Islands.  These  take  their  stands 
in  various  i)arts  of  the  plaza,  right,  surrounded  l)y  their 
followers. 

On  the  lesser  mound.  Europe  towers  highest  from 
amongst  them. 

As  the  multitude  enters  and  moves  forward,  march- 
ing, voices  of  the  unseen  chorus  [male  and  female 
voices]  precede  and  resound  from  their  midst.] 

CHORUS  OF  THE  WORLD  ADVENTURERS 

A  star  —  a  star  in  the  ivest! 

Out  of  the  wave  it  rose: 
And  it  led  ks  forth  on  a  ivorld-far  quest: 
Where  the  mesas  scorched  and  the  moorlands 
froze 

It  lured  us  without  rest: 

With  yearyiing,  yearning  —  ah! 
It  sang  {as  it  beckoned  us) 

A  music  vast,  adventurous  — 
America! 

[Merging  their  ranks  with  the  Pioneers,  who  wel- 
come them  in  pantomime,  the  World  Adventurers  mass 
themselves  about  the  central  and  lesser  mound  [on 
the  right],  while  the  chorus  still  resounds.] 

CHORUS  OF  THE  WORLD  ADVENTURERS 

A  star —  a  star  in  the  night! 

Out  of  our  hearts  it  dawned! 
And  it  poured  ivithin  its  wonderful  liaht; 
Where  our  hovels  gloomed  and  our  hunger 
spawned 
It  healed  our  passionate  blight: 
And  burning,  burning  —  ah! 
It  clanged  {as  it  Jcindled  us) 
Of  a  freedom,  proud  and  perilous  — 
America! 
90 


[Raisiug  his  standard  from  the  heights  of  the  lesser 
mound,  the  masked  Figure  of  Europe  hails  Saint 
Louis.] 

EUROPE 

American ! —  In  you,  young  Pioneer, 
We  greet  the  conquering  star  which  lures  the  world. 
America,  who  cradled  you  as  child  — 
A  wastrel  Moses  'mid  wild  river-reeds  — 
Now  calls  your  prime  to  lead  the  tribes  of  man. 
And  I,  who  gat  you  heroes  from  my  loins, 
I,  Europe,  crv  as  spokesman  of  these  tribes : 
Give  welcome  to  these  AVorld  Adventurers, 
AYho  come  to  blend  their  blood  and  toil  with  vours. 
[Europe  dips  his  standard  toward  Saint  Louis,  who 
returns  the  salute  with  his  sword.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 
Welcome!    Thrice  welcome,  World  Adventurers! 
Hail  them,  my  Pioneers ! 

THE  PIONEERS 
[With  hearty  shout.] 

Good  hunting,  all ! 
[Pointing  upward  their  rifles  and  guns,  they  shoot 
an  echoing  volley  into  the  air.] 

THE   WORLD   ADVENTURERS 
[Waving  their  national  emblems,  shout  in  reply  :] 

Huzza,  Saint  Louis! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

We,  who  in  old  times 
Hunted  each  other,  hunt  together  now 
The  quarries  of  the  world :  freedom  and  iov 
And  lasting  brotherhood.    Our  trails  are  cleared; 
The  Earth  Spirits  are  tamed.  What  can  withstand  — 
AVho  shall  defy  us  now? 

[At  his  confident  cry,  flame  and  thunder  bui-st  from 
the  top  of  the  storm-tower  on  the  left :  hurtling  toward 
the  mound,  a  blazing  bomb  explodes  in  mid  air;  and 
plunging  forward  from  the  dark  below  the  tower,  a 
maked  Rider,  clothed  in  blood-red  mail,  gallops  his 
blood-red  horse  mid  way  of  the  plaza,  and  halts  with 

harsh  yell.] 

01 


THE  RIDER 

War  —  War  defies ! 
[Ivciiiiiig  liis  liorsc.  ho  l)ran<lishes  backward  his  san- 
guine lance  toward  the  darkness,  and  shouts:] 

Mache ! 

[Immediately  from  the  obscure  back<rround  and  side 
entrances  [left]  there  pours  in.  pell  mell,  a  fierce  horde 
of  his  demon  followers  —  vivid  in  scarlet,  purple,  yel- 
low, black,  and  .sharp  contrasting  colors,  panoplied  in 
the  varied  accoutrements  of  war,  ancient  and  oriental. 

At  their  head  rides  Gold,  returning  on  a  horse  of 
gold. 

The  hordes  enter  screaming,  to  the  rumbling  of 
drums,  and  swarm  over  the  plaza  spaces  on  the  left, 
surrounding  the  War  Demon,  where  he  sits  high  on  his 
gule-bright  horse  on  the  lesser  mound.  Around  him, 
like  the  hosts  of  Darius,  his  followers  stretch  to  the 
darkness.  In  the  background,  long  lances,  bearing 
spiked  human  heads,  loom  from  behind  him.] 

THE  WAR  DEMONS 

[Yelling,  as  they  sweep  forward.] 

THE  PIONEERS  AND  ADVENTURERS 

[Raising  their  weapons  and  standards,  start  toward 
them.] 

Saint  Louis  and  victory! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

[Putting  to  liis  lips  a  trumpet,  blows  it,  and  then 
calls:] 
Pioneers !    Americans !    My  countrymen ! 

HIS  FOLLOWERS 
[Pausing,  shout  in  answer:] 
Saint  Louis ! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Halt!    A  parley  with  this  host: 
Hail,  Gold !    You  are  returned ! 

GOLD 

[Who  sits,  mounted,  beside  the  War  Demon:] 

I  am  returned. 
And  bring  new  hordes  in  vengeance.

SAINT  LOUIS 

A  new  fall 

You  ride  to !  —  What  are  these! 

GOLD 

My  mercenaries: 

Still,  old  as  time,  they  do  my  will  to-day. 
SAINT  LOUIS 

But  not  to-morrow ! 

[Pointing:] 

Who  is  he? 

GOLD 

My  tool 

And  mightiest  minion  —  War. 

[To  the  Demon:]  ,    ^, 

Declare  our  clialleng:e ! 

WAR 

[To  Saint  Louis:] 
A  million  hearts  have  dyed  me  in  these  gules : 
The  hearth  fires  of  a  million  homes  my  horse 
Has  stamped  to  ashes.    In  the  name  of  saints 
And  saviors  I  have  served  my  master.  Gold. 
Once  more  I  serve  him.    All  your  proudest  dreams, 
Saint  Louis,  I  defy,  and  challenge  —  so ! 

[He  hurls  toward  Saint  Louis  a  bomb,  which  bursts 
above  the  mound  in  falling  fire.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 
And  so,  War,  I  accept  your  challenge! 

[He  plucks  again  the  star  from  his  fillet,  and  holds 
it  upward,  glowing.  ,    •  ,  ^ 

A  troop  of  the  World  Adventurers,  clad  as  knights, 
ride  forward  from  the  right.  Their  leader  is  clothed 
like  Saint  Louis.] 

THEIR  LEADER 
[Raising  his  lance.]  Choose, 

Saint  Louis !  Choose  from  us ! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

You,  then,  I  choose 
To  fight  with  War.    The  victor  holds  the  field. 
Receive  our  star,  and  wear  it  in  the  tournev. 

[From  Saint  Louis'  hand,  a  Herald  bears  the  star 
to  the  Tourney  Rider,  who  places  it  shining  in  his  helmet. 

93 


The  othei"s  draw  back. 

From  either  side,  nioimted  on  their  uiaiK'd  horses, 
the  white  Tourney  Rider  and  the  crimson  War  Demon 
confront  each  otlier. 

From  above,  Saint  Louis  lil'ts  his  perpendicular 
sword  and  calls:] 

Ho,  ready !  —  Ride ! 

[The  sword  clangs  on  tlie  stone. 

Willi  lances  set.  tlio  antaironists  spur  toward  each 
other. 

From  both  sides  great  shouts  go  up.  and  continue 
clamorously  as  the  riders  meet  in  shock,  draw  back, 
and  plunge  again.] 

THE  WAR  DEMONS 
Nike!    Nike!    Kai  Thanatos! 

TPIE  PIONEERS  AND  ADVENTURERS 

Victory  and  Life ! 

[The  tournament  continues  fiercel}^ 

In  the  conflict  their  lances  are  shattered. 

World  Adveiiturer  and  War  Demon  draw  then  their 
swords  and  strike  at  each  other. 

Amid  din  of  the  watching  hosts.  Saint  Louis'  cham- 
pion strikes  from  the  War  Demon  his  helmet  and  un- 
horses him. 

The  clamor  grows  wilder. 

Seeing  the  plight  of  War.  Gold  rides  to  the  fallen 
Demon,  who  reaches  to  his  stirrup  and.  mounting  with 
him,  is  whirled  away  [left]  into  the  darkness,  amidst 
the  stampede  and  rout  of  the  Demon  hordes. 

With  exulting  shouts,  the  Pioneers  and  Adventurers 
are  starting  to  pursue,  when  —  above  the  mound-shrine 
—  appears  an  enormous  star,  burning  whitely. 

Below  it  Saint  Louis  puts  once  more  the  trumpet  to 
his  lips,  blows  loud,  and  calls  again.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 
The  star! 

THE  PIONEERS  AND  ADVENTURERS 

[Pausing,  dazzled,  screen  their  eyes  and  cry  out:] 

The  star!    The  star! 
[Above,  the  apparition  vanishes. 
Below,  the  hordes  of  War  disappear.]

Peace,  and  the  law  of  brothers !  —  O  my  brothers, 
Hark  where  the  demon's  rout  dies  moanino;.   Peace! 
The  star  is  holy  where  forgiveness  burns. 
Our  flag  is  bright  with  stars  of  brotherhood. 

[A  herald  has  brought  from  the  shrine  a  great  folded 
banner  of  the  American  colors,  wreathed,  and  holds  it 
beside  Saint  Louis. 

Saint  Louis  lifts  it  above  the  assembled  peoples,  who 
bow  down  with  a  deep  murmur.] 

ALL 
America !  —  Our  stars ! 

[The  Tourney  Rider  has  mounted  the  temple  steps 
with  his  shattered  lance,  and  hands  to  Saint  Louis  the 
star  from  his  helmet. 

Saint  Louis  takes  it,  and  hands  to  him  in  return  the 
color  standard,  which  the  Rider  bears  with  him  aside.]

Champion  the  stars,  but  first  ourselves  be  clean ! 
Yonder  —  ah  yonder,  even  from  our  own  midst, 
What  shapes  of  sorrow  and  unclean  despair 
Rise  in  our  path  once  more !  Hark  now :  what  dirge? 
What    stifled    cry! — (pointing) — That    frail,    un-

adirgeof  women 'svoices  has  begun  to  lift  in  low  wailing.] 

THE  DIRGE 
To  some,  to  some  —  tlie  Ji cart's  desire;

To  some,  ah,  some  —  the  lindlino  fire; 
To  i(s  —  the  cold  hearth-stone. 
Ah,  holy  One!

old  men  bowed  over,  and  young  men  darkly  brooding; 
among  them,  a  masked  female  Form  in  black,  a  scarlet 
band  about  her  forehead. 

Chanting  their  dirge,  the  dun-colored  pageant  moves 
haltingly  toward  the  mound. 

Last  in  the  pageant  walks  a  tall  Figure  completely 
hooded  in  black  featurele.ss  ma.sk.  and  straight-robed 
in  black.

He  christened  them : 
Shame  is  my  eldest :  Vice  and  Pla.e:ue  I  bore 
Twins,  to  his  power;  next  Dumbness  and  Despair, 
And  here  you  see  their  offspring.    Yonder  —  ah. 
There  stands  my  brooding  son,  Rebellion.    These, 
And  many  more,  their  father  brands  with  names; 
But  I  —  I  call  them  all  my  comrades.

SAINT  LOUIS 

Tell: 
What  bodes  that  scarlet  band  about  your  brow? 

POVERTY 

Ask  him  who  tied  it  there. 

[She  points  again  at  the  hooded  Figure.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 

But  what  is  he  ? 

POVERTY 

[Shrinking  back.] 
I  dare  not  name  him.    He  is  never  named 
When  I  am  near. 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Speak,  hooded  shape:  What  are  you? 
[The  Figure  in  black  moves  silently  toward  Saint 
Louis,  and  begins  to  ascend  the  steps  of  the  mound.] 
Why  do  you  mount  toward   mef  —  Stay!    Are  you 

dumbf 
Your  silence  cries  to  God! 
[Saint  Louis  draws  back. 

The  Figure  approaches  him  with  slow  menace  and 
touches  his  arm.] 

Your  hand  is  cold. 
Why  have  you  left  your  place? 

THE  FIGURE 

My  place  is  here. 

SAINT  LOUIS 
Your  voice  —  it  chills  my   heart.    What   power   is 
yours  ? 

THE  FIGURE 

[Pointing  below.] 
My  power  is  placed  above  the  reach  of  —  those. 
[He  grasps  the  hilt  of  Saint  Louis'  sword.] 

SAINT  LOUIS 

[Wresting  it  from  him.] 
Unloose  my  sword ! 

[The  Figure  reaches  upward.] 

Touch  not  my  star !  Dark  shape, 
/  will  unmask  you. 

97 


[Tearing  the  hood  from  the  face.  Saint  Louis  starts 
back. 

Dropping  the  robe  Ironi   his  slioulders,  the  Figure 
steps  forth  all  gleaming,  as  Saint  Louis  cries  out:] 
Gold! 

(JOLD 

We  meet  ouce  more. 
[Wrenching  the  sword  from  Saint  Louis,  Gold  strides 
up  the  steps  to  the  shrine,  and  turns,  brandishing  it.] 
Hail  me,  my  Earth  Spirits ! 
[Cry  from  below.] 

VOICES 

Gold!    Yo,  Gold! 
[Appearing   from   behind    the   mound,    the    Earth 
Spirits  rush  up  the  slopes  and  steps.] 

THE  PIONEERS  AND  ADVENTURERS 
[Shout.]  Saint  Louis! 

GOLD 
[Exultant.] 
Wings!    Now  their  wings  are  mine!    Surround  my 
temple ! 

[Gold  goes  into  the  shrine,  bearing  the  sword. 
The  Eartli  Spirits  rush  up  after  him,  and  stand 
guard  about  the  closed  door  with  outspread  wings. 

There  they  confront  Saint  Louis,  who  pauses  mid- 
way on  the  steps,  clutching  the  air  dazedly  for  his  reft 
sword.] 

THE  WOMEN  AND  CHILDREN 

[From  below.] 
Save  us,  Saint  Louis ! 

[Saint  Louis  stands,  groping  upward. 
From  the  sky,  a  shooting-star  starts  and  falls  be- 
yond the  temple,  as  the  deep  sky  voice  calls:] 

THE  SKY  VOICE 
Saint  Louis ! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Hark!   the  omen! 

THE  SKY  VOICE 
Saint  Louis,  call  your  brothers ! 


SAINT  LOUIS 

I  hear ! 

98 


Wasapedan. 


THE  SKY  VOICE 

Alono,  you  fall,  ^lake  loaft-iie  together. 
Call  on  the  cities!  —  Leagiio,  and  conquer  Gold! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Cahokia,  your  vision  falls  on  me : 

Here  on  your  mound,  I  hark  now,  and  remember! 

THE  WOMEN 

[From  bt'low.j 
Saint  Louis,  save  us ! 

SAINT  LOUIS 

Bear  with  me,  my  sisters ! 
Your  sorrow  is  our  nation's.    I  will  call 
My  brother  cities  here,  and  purge  our  temple. 

[To  his  gesture,  four  mounted  Heralds  move  for- 
ward on  the  space  below.     Their  horses  are  plumed 
with  long,  slim  wiugs  like  swallows.] 
Ride,   Heralds!  —  Make   your   trumpets    the    four 

Minds ! 
Call  to  the  cities  and  proclaim  our  League! 

[Spurring  their  horses  to  the  four  corners  of  the 
plaza,  the  Heralds  sound  their  trumpets  with  loud 
peals. 

From  far  away,  martial  replies  come  hack  like  echoes. 
Saint  Louis  speaks  again  to  the  dun-colored  figures 
below.] 

Rise  up,  pale  women.  Watch  beside  me  here. 
For  they  are  coming.    Rise  now.  Poverty, 
For  you  shall  find  your  rest  here  on  my  mound, 
x\nd  sleep  with  your  sad  children. 

[Beckoning  the  masked  Form,  Saint  Louis  himself 
goes  down  and  leads  her  up  the  mound's  level, 
trailed  after  by  others  of  the  dark  pageant. 

There  for  a  moment  Poverty  stands  beside  him,  then 
sinks  down,  where  he  liends  over  her.  The  others  also 
sink  down,  and  Saint  Louis  speaks  with  gentle  ges- 
ture.] 

Now,  sweet  dreams! 
To-morrow  these  shall  wake  with  other  names! 

[The  light  uoav  fades  from  the  mound,  from  all  ex- 
cept the  figure  of  Saint  Louis  and  abovp  him  the  shrine, 
with  the  Earth  Spirits  on  guard. 

Rising.  Saint  Louis  makes  signal  again  1o  the  Her- 
alds, who  blow  their  trumpets,  a  .second  time. 
99 


'I'Im'  Inunpots'  cclio  sounds  IoikUt. 

A  lliird  limt'  Ihcy  blow. 

The  jx'id  is  rcjilied  to  from  all  parts,  and  now  by 
land  and  water,  to  a  inarch  music  of  spirited  solemnity, 
the  Pajjjeant  of  tlie  Cities  begins  majestically  to  enter. 

In  seven  major  groups  come  the  cities  of  the  Union, 
representing  all  the  states  and  the  i-slands,  and  leading 
them  —  the  Federal  Capital.  Accompanying  them 
rides  a  group  of  foreign  cities,  representing  countries 
of  South  America.  Canada.  England,  and  Europe. 

The  seven  groups  of  tho  Union  are  marshalled  in 
this  wise: 

By  water,  the  cities  of  the  Rivers,  led  by  New  Or- 
leans; and  of  the  Lakes,  led  by  Chicago. 

By  land,  those  of  the  Eastern  seaboard,  led  by  New 
York ;  of  the  "Western  coast,  by  San  Francisco ;  of  the 
]\[ountains.  by  Denver;  of  the  Islands — by  Honolulu. 

Attending  the  cities  are  tlieir  distinctive  industries. 

]\[arshalling  them  all  rides  the  city  Washington. 

In  his  train  are  groups  of  the  nation's  Arts,  Sciences, 
and  Professions. 

As  they  approach,  the  Pioneers  and  Adventurers 
move  on  either  side  to  the  middle  and  background. 

Converging  like  a  vast  V,  whose  apex  is  the  foot  of 
the  mound,  the  city  groups  take  their  stations  on  the 
plaza  foreground  —  Washington  and  his  group*  at 
the  apex. 

There  Washington  salutes  Saint  Louis,  and  speaks.] 

WASHINGTON 
Saint  Louis,  to  our  states  and  sister  lands. 
Our  coasts,  and  islos,  our   mountains,    rivers,    and 

lakes 
The  winds  have  borne  your  cry,  and  we  respond. 

TPIE  SEVEN  GROUPS 

[Calling,  through  their  masked  spokesmen.] 

[I] 
I  from  the  eastern  sea  liave  come  —  New  York. 

[11] 
I  from  the  western  —  San  Francisco. 

[Ill] 

I 
Speak  from  the  lakes  —  Cliicago. 


•In  this  group  are  the  Arts,  Play,  Dance,    the    Civic    Theatre, 
etc.,  and  with  them  children  and  young  people  come  dancing. 

100 


[IV] 

I  from  the  rivers  — 

New  Orleans. 

[V] 
On  the  mountains  —  Denver,  I. 

[VI] 
I  call  from  the  far  islands  —  Honolulu  1 

WASHINGTON 
[VH] 
And  I  from  the  Capitol.  —  We  hail  you,  brother ! 
What  urging  cause  now  calls  us  to  make  league  1 

SAINT   LOUIS 
Gold  has  usurped  our  temple.  —  In  our  path 
Lo,  we  have  grappled  the  Elements,  Earth,  and  War 
And  overcome  them.    Gold  alone  has  slipped 
Our  grasp,  eluding  us  in  subtle  guises. 
Here,  in  his  train,  behold  this  pallid  troup 
Of  Poverty,  bowed  in  dark.  —  Cities,  my  brothers, 
Gold  has  usurped  our  temple  and  our  sword : 
How  shall  we  cope  with  Gold  ? 

WASHINGTON 
[Turuiug  to  his  group.] 

Imagination, 
Reveal,  and  answer !    For  if  you  are  blind, 
The  nations  walk  in  darkness. 

[From  the  group  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  Imagination 
stands  forth  —  a  noble  female  Form,  masked  in  serene 
beauty.] 

IMAGINATION 

Lords  of  the  earth. 
And  you,  then,  stricken  so  dumb?    And  are  you  daz- 
zled 
\\Tien  Gold  draws  near  to  God?    And  do  your  souls 
Cry  for  a  saviour? 
Close  your  eyes,  0  people! 
Gaze  there  in  your  own  darkness : 
What  do  you  behold  there? 
Follow  me :    I  will  show  you. 

[Through  the  fallen  figures  on  the  steps,  she  mounts 
to  the  mound  level,  where  she  stands  in  the  dimness 
and  looks  back  on  the  illumined  plaza.] 

101 


In  all  tills  gor^a'uiis  pageant  of  the  world 

lias  none  beheld  himf     Nay,  he  sits  in  twiliglit 

And  hroods  by  fallen  Poverty.     Behold  hinj !  — 

[Slie  points  beside  liio  stricken  form  of  Poverty  to 
where  a  slight,  slim  Figure  sits.] 

A    child:    a   child!  —  And    wings    he     bears  —  and 
thorns ! 

[Reaching  her  hand.] 
Arise,  dear  Love,  and  lead  me  to  the  temple. 

[The  child  rises  from  his  brooding,  and  steps  into 
sudden  light.  liare-liml)ed,  he  wears  a  dnn  blue  tabard, 
througli  wiiieli  at  the  slioulders  sprnig  iris  wings.  On 
his  head  thorns  glitter  like  a  garland. 

Taking  Imagniation's  outstretched  hand,  and  pass- 
ing Saint  Louis  [who  gazes  with  awe],  he  leads  her  up 
the  steps  to  the  shrine  and  pauses. 

Saint  Louis  follows  part  way  up  the  steps. 

At  the  approach  of  the  child,  the  Earth  Spirits  draw 
back  from  the  closed  door,  screening  their  eyes. 

The  child  draws  nearer  and  —  as  Imagination  stands 
beside  him  —  knocks. 

The  door  clangs  with  a  deep  booming,  and  swings 
open. 

Slowly  Gold  comes  forih,  holding  the  sword. 

Confronting  the  child,  he  raises  the  sword  above  his 
head  to  strike. 

The  child  looks  up  at  him. 

Gold  pauses,  wavering. 

The  sword  falls  from  his  grasp,  and  he  bows  down 
with  a  deep  cry.] 

GOLD 
Master! 

[The  child  touches  his  bowed  form. 
Gold   raises  his  head,   reaches  for  the  sword,   and 
holds  it  up. 

Imagination  takes  the  sword  and  speaks.] 

IMAGINATION 

"NTow,  rrold.  rejoin  these  Flnrth  Spirits.     Yon 
Henceforth  are  one  of  them  —  to  serve  ns. 

[Gold  draws  back  and  joins  the  group  of  Earth 
Spirits,  who  bow  down  with  him.] 

THE  EARTH  SPIRITS 

Ee-yo ! 
102 


IMAGINATION 

[Gazing  below  at  the  stricken  forms.] 
Now  wake,  you  lonely  and  despairing  ones ! 
Wake    from    your   dark,    and    be    what    you    have 

dreamed! 
Saint  T.onis,  gruard  the  sword!  —  Love    holds    the 
temple. 

[Standing  the  sword  against  the  lintel,  Imagination 
and  Love  go  within. 

Saint  Louis,  from  midway  of  the  steps,  ascends  and 
takes  the  sword. 

Standing  before  the  temple  shrine,  he  turns  and 
looks  below. 

On  the  mound  level  and  the  lower  steps,  a  dreamy 
light  reveals  where  Poverty  and  the  other  stricken 
shapes  have  risen  from  their  dun  garb,  new  clad  in 
forms  of  light  and  graeiousness.] 

SAINT    LOUIS 

[Addressing  them  and  the  multitude.] 
0  sisters  —  brothers  —  cities  leagued  by  Love ! 
If  we  are  dreaming,  let  us  scorn  to  wake ; 
Or  waking,  let  us  shape  the  sordid  world 
To  likeness  of  our  dreams.    For  'tis  a  little, 
"When  we,  too,  like  Cahokia,  shall  lie  down, 
And  this  our  city  be  a  silent  mound, 
Silent,  save  over  all  —  the  chanting  stars ! 

[Beyond  him,  from  the  sky,  slowly  the  Great  Bear 
gleams,  while  the  star-choirs  sing,  remote:] 

CHORUS  OF  THE  STARS 

Out  of  the  formless  void 

Beaidy  and  order  are  horn: 

One  for  the  all,  all  in  one, 

We  wheel  in  the  joy  of  our  dance. 

WASAPfiDAN 


St.  Louis. 


SAINT   LOUIS 
Hark  —  the  voice ! 

WASAPfiDAN 


Behold  the  wings! 


SAINT    LOUIS 
What  wings,  0  Wasapedan? 

WASAPfiDAN 


103 


Eagle's  wings! 


SAINT    LOUIS 
What  eagle  flies? 

WA8APEDAN 
^Vnit'i'ica !     Your  league 
Rides  on  his  wings,  and  rises  toward  the  stars. 
[Wusapedau  fades. 

Saint  Louis,  looking  toward  the  southern  tower, 
points  there  with  his  sword,  and  turns  toward  the  great 
assemblage.] 

SAINT    LOUIS 
Cities  1    My  brothers  —  sing!    Our  league  is  born! 

ALL  THE  ASSEMBLAGE 
Saint  Louis !    The  League  of  Cities ! 

[Suddenly  all  start,  uplifting  their  arms,  and  gazing 
toward  the  tower  entrance,  cry  out]  : 

Wings !  the  Wings ! 
[Beyond,  from  the  outside  darkness,  a  great  whirr- 
ing hums;  groups  of  the  people  start  back  and  for- 
ward, leaving  a  wide  pathway,  along  which  —  emerging 
from  the  dimness  —  a  gigantic  Bird  sweeps  whirring, 
darts  for  an  instant  through  bright  radiance,  then  soars 
into  the  night,  circling  upward  and  scattering  wild 
sparkles  of  fire  in  its  wake.* 

Saint  Louis  stands,  pointing  skyward  with  his  sword. 
Meantime,  from  the  gazing  hosts  of  the  plaza,  sway- 
ing with  rhythmic  motion,  a  mighty  chorus  rises.] 

CHORUS 
Out  of  the  formless  void 
Beauty  and  order  are  born: 
One  for  the  all,  all  in  one, 
We  wheel  in  the  joy  of  our  dance. 

Brother  with  brother 
Sharing  our  light, 
Build  we  new  worlds 
With  ancient  fir  el 
[From  far,  above  temple    and    plaza,    the    colossal 
Eagle  still  drops  his  fiery  plumes.] 

FINIS. 


*In  configuration  and  color  an  eagle,  the  bird,  of  course,  is  an 
aeroplane,  serving  thus  for  the  first  time  the  symbolism  of  dra- 
matic poetry.  The  sparkles  in  its  wake  are  vari-colored  fireworks, 
shot  off  as  It  soars.

The  Masque. 


V  snectacular  symbolic  interpretation  of  the  history  of  St.  Louis  as 
shown  in  the  Papeant.  The  relation  of  the  life  of  St.  Louis  to  the  life  of 
Se  nation  and  of  humanity.  The  words  by  Percy  MacKaye  are  published 
in  a  separate  book.  ^^^^  ^^^ 

Oahokia  the  spirit  of  the  Mound  Building  Civilization,  dreams.  He 
sees  the  ceremonial  dance  of  the  Maya  Chiefs,  the  representatives  of  the 
hlehest   civilization  the   race   knew.  ,     ^  ^      ^i.      r-i  . 

He  awakes  to  find  his  empire  gone.  He  is  mocked  by  the  Elements- 
Heat  and  Cold,  the  Wild  Nature  Forces.  Buffalo  and  Wild  Cat.  Forest  and 

^^°°He  asks  the  stars  if  there  is  no  hope.  The  Great  Bear  of  the  Milky 
Way  tells  him  that  Mississippi  will  bring  the  child  of  a  new  race,  a  white 
child   who  .shall  bring  back   civilization. 

Mississippi  brings  the  child.  The  Wild  Nature  Forces  try  to  overcome 
him  but  they  hear  the  coming  of  the  Discoverers  and  retreat.  ^  Then  the 
Nations  enter,  name  the  child  St.  Louis,  and  bid  him  carry  on  the  mission 
of  civilization. 

Cahokla  sleeps   with   his  people.

PART  TWO. 


Now  come  the  Pioneers.  Miners  and  P.anKers.  bringing  tidings  of  labor 
and  battle  and  calling  upon  St.  Louis  to  lead  them.  Then  appears  Gold, 
leading  the  Earth  Spirits,  copper,  silver,  lead,  iron,  forest,  fur,  to  grapple 
with  the  pioneers.  There  is  a  wrestling  bout — Gold  is  overthrown  but 
departs   defiant.      The    Earth   Spirits  are    tamed. 

Now  come  the  World  Adventurers,  men  and  women  of  all  nation.s,  call- 
ing upon  St.  Louis  for  a  welcome.  Again  Gold  appears,  riding  upon  a 
horse  of  gold,  bringing  with  him  the  war  demon  and  all  his  followers. 
This  time  there  is  a  tournament  and  the  War  Demon  and  Gold  are  over- 
thrown.    The  Pioneers  and  World  Adventurers  raise  a  shout  of  triumph. 

.\  dirge  of  women's  voices  is  heard,  followed  by  the  wail  of  Poverty. 
With  her  come  her  children.  Shame.  Vice.  Plague.  Dumbness,  Despair  and 
Rebellion.  With  her  is  a  mysterious  hooded  figure,  the  father  of  her  chil- 
dren.    St.  Louis  unmasks  the   hooded   figure  and   finds  his   old  enemy.  Gold. 

The  Star.s  tell  St.  Louis  he  cannot  conquer  alone.  So  he  calls  on  the 
cities  to  form  a  league  to  help  him.  From  East  and  West,  North  and 
South,  by  land  and  water,  the  cities  come,  and  with  them  come  the  .\rt3 
and   Sciences  to  conquer  Gold   and  save  the   children   of  I'overty. 

Imagination  and  Love  point  the  way  to  victory  and  Gold  surrenders  his 
sword.
